All eyes on Brussels, as world leaders gather for EDD - 2013 European Development Days - by Rolf Rosenkranz

What’s the future of international development — and how will it affect you? As official media partner of the 2013 European Development Days, Devex will sit down with world leaders and innovators next week to find out.

Devex members will have a front-row seat to our coverage and to Europe’s top gathering of development movers and shakers. You’ll hear from presidents, tech innovators, NGO leaders and top EU officials about the latestest solutions to pressing development challenges, and how they may affect your business or career.

Luminaries that are scheduled to visit our video pavilion on Tuesday and Wednesday include Liberian President Ellen John Sirleaf as well as Niger’s President Mahamadou Issoufou, who is battling poverty and instability at home and abroad. We’ll speak with Winnie Byanyima, a Ugandan aeronautical engineer who earlier this year was named executive director of Oxfam International, one of the leading international development NGOs and advocacy groups.

You’ll hear from Joanna Maycock, president of Concord, the alliance of European aid NGOs, as well as Gib Bulloch, executive director of Accenture. Among the many other people we look forward to speaking with are Paul Garnett, Microsoft Corp.’s director for technology policy; Helen Hai, CEO of China Africa Consulting; and Ralf Dürrwang, vice president of corporate citizenship at Deutsche Post DHL.
