The new European Commission

The Flint Podcast

In this podcast, Flint experts explore the structure and policy direction of the new European Commission unveiled by President Ursula von der Leyen.

Our experts discuss what the new allocation of portfolios reveals about the EU’s balance of power, internal dynamics and political priorities for the upcoming mandate, in the wake of Mario Draghi’s recently published report on the future of European Competitiveness. They will also explain what to expect from the Commissioner hearings in the European Parliament.
Flint Partner Fiona Wright hosts the discussion between:

• Benoit Roussel, Brussels partner
• Sir Julian King, Specialist Partner, former UK European Commissioner
• David Wright, Senior Adviser, former Deputy DG at the European Commission
