Europe and the UK face critical geopolitical, economic, social, and climate challenges in the decades ahead – the Milken Institute's new European office aims to strengthen the continent by promoting ideas that drive prosperity and advance solutions to the region’s largest challenges.

We achieve this goal by uniting influential figures in business, government, health, not-for-profits, and philanthropy to share experiences and catalyze change. Through hosting a series of high-level, invitation-only gatherings throughout the year, we allow participants to explore other viewpoints, broaden their networks, and shape concrete initiatives that promote action-oriented solutions.

Through our research and programs, our experts develop innovative policy initiatives that exist at the intersection of our key pillars of health, philanthropy, finance, and international. We adopt a nonpartisan approach to offer immediate solutions to the problems of today.
