The Rustat Conferences bring together leaders from worlds of academia, politics, business, industry, finance, the public sector, education and the media to discuss and debate the vital issues of the day. We seek to attract members and sponsors to help us sustain the high quality of participation, the frequency of events, and broad outreach to the wider academic, professional and student community through conference reports.
