Open Borders Institute (OBI) - a EuropaNova partnership

The Open Borders Institute (OBI) is an advocacy promoting open societies. It aims at changing perspectives on borders by interviewing leaders or future leaders from academia, the business world and civil society. The activities of OBI are twofold. We primarily hosts talks on international affairs. We also lobby executives to encourage diverse hiring practices. Our network of expert speakers features: ● Francesca Romana D’Antuono, Co-President at Volt Europa ● Alberto Alemanno, Jean Monnet Professor of EU Law at HEC Paris ● Shahin Vallée, Head of Geo-Economics at German Council on Foreign Relations (DGAP) ● Guillaume Klossa, VP European Affairs at Hill+Knowlton Strategies ● Helmut Sorge, Columnist at Policy Center for the New South OBI was set-up by a group of friends of different views and origins as an unincorporated charitable association, based in London, UK.
