Who we are
EPICENTER, along with all of our passionate member think tanks, fervently believes that the best days for Europe are not behind us but ahead. Through a dynamic approach to economic liberalisation, a profound respect for the rich diversity of the EU, and an unwavering commitment to its traditions of individual freedom, we see a future filled with promise and potential.Â
By uniting the leading free-market think tanks of Europe, EPICENTER doesn't just amplify the voice of our member think tanks from across the continent; we ignite a movement. With the combined expertise of over 150 committed, visionary individuals across our 12 member think tanks, EPICENTER is more than a think tank; we are a powerhouse of ideas with the ability to ensure that those ideas are put into practice. We contribute insights, vision, and a roadmap that can make Europe not just a continent but a beacon of opportunity to live in, to invest in, and to enjoy.Â
