Show Me the Money! with Tony Murphy, President of the European Court of Auditors
Ever wondered how €186 billion in EU spending is scrutinized to ensure every euro counts?
On 14th January, from 13:00 to 14:00, at the REC E-Hall, we’ll dive into the world of the European Court of Auditors (ECA) with its President, Tony Murphy.
As the leader of the EU’s financial watchdog, Murphy ensures that the Union’s finances are transparent, efficient, and accountable—essential for addressing the generational challenges Europe faces today.
From ensuring Europe’s preparedness for cyberattacks and natural disasters to scrutinizing ambitious climate initiatives, Murphy’s work goes beyond mere numbers. He’ll share how the ECA tackles some of the EU’s biggest questions: are the ambitious 2030 climate goals achievable, or are they lofty aspirations? Can Europe maintain its competitive edge in a global economy dominated by the US and China? And how does the ECA ensure every euro spent reflects the Union’s values?
This is your opportunity to see beyond the spreadsheets and gain insight into how audits shape Europe’s future.
