Ask any Warwick student doing an Economics-related degree and chances are they have attended The Summit at least once throughout their university life. However, WES has become a truly open forum for new ideas and welcomes students from all disciplines with an interest in current affairs, business, law, technology, global health, psychology, public policy and related areas.
Famed for its incredible line-up of speakers - from Nobel Prize winners to Prime Ministers, from human rights activists to industry leaders, we bring you the best student-led summit Europe has to offer. So prestigious is the event that in 2021 over 500 students attended from 43 universities worldwide comprising 63 different nationalities. The best part? It is right here on your doorstep.
But the Summit isn't only a weekend of talks. It is a place to meet new people, to expand your global knowledge, and most importantly, to be entertained!
This year will be our 23rd anniversary and for the first time, we are going hybrid! The exec is working hard to make this the best edition ever.
No wonder people look at you funny if you've never attended the Summit at least once in your university life. Come check us out!
