Other Speaker : Maurice Höfgen is an economist and author and is regarded as a leading voice of a new economic policy. The renowned German Handelsblatt dubbed him the “Economics Influencer.” In recognition of his impact on public discourse, Forbes included him in its prestigious “30 Under 30” list in 2025. His academic journey began at Maastricht University, where he laid the foundations for his current work in the master’s program “Economics and Strategy in Emerging Markets.”
After working as a research associate in the German Bundestag, he established himself as one of the most important explainers of economics. On YouTube (“Geld für die Welt”) and as the most-read author on Substack Germany, he translates complex fiscal policy into plain language. With books such as “Teuer!” ("Expensive!"), he challenges old dogmas and offers progressive solutions to the economic challenges of our time.
