Annual conference

The Annual Conference is our flagship event and brings together hundreds of academic and professional economists to present the latest developments in economics and showcase their real-world application.

​Our Annual Conference usually consists of four keynote lectures, special sessions and a plenary session. 

The Annual Conference is followed by the RES Symposium of Junior Researchers, an event for and run by PhD students. To support postgraduate students wishing to attend we also offer a PhD financial assistance fund.

What is the RES Annual Conference?

The Royal Economic Society Annual Conference 2013 — as described by Professor Richard Blundell, President from 2010 to 2013.
