GEI Lunch with John Micklethwait
My 12, 2026- For its traditional May lunch, the GEI – Gruppo Esponenti Italiani – welcomed John Micklethwait for a conversation with Mario Calvo-Platero.
Editor-in-Chief of Bloomberg and former Editor-in-Chief of The Economist, Micklethwait is widely regarded as one of the leading interpreters of global political and economic trends. The discussion focused on the current international landscape, unresolved geopolitical tensions, the resilience of the U.S. economy and the growing impact of artificial intelligence on media, information, and decision-making.
Micklethwait, who oversees Bloomberg’s global editorial operations across news, television, radio, magazines, and digital platforms, has interviewed many of the world’s leading figures, from Vladimir Putin to Donald Trump, offering a uniquely informed perspective on today’s rapidly changing global environment.
