The first hectic month is coming to an end and we have several things to report, first and foremost we are proud to inform that our election meeting has taken place and the board has been filled up with a total of 15 people excited to take on new challenges for the coming year, we would also like to take this opportunity to in particular congratulate Fredrik Mikaelsson for attaining the post of president for Uppsala Pareto Economic Association, we are confident that with his election the organization are in good hands for the coming year.

Although all the positions in the board have been filled up there are still several ways that you as a member could get involved with the organization.

If you’re interested shoot an email to contact@paretouppsala.se.

Secondly, our second event for this terms Ph.D lectures is coming up on the 2nd of October with Jacob Lundberg on the topic of mapping the development of the Swedish distribution of wealth. The lecture will be held in room F433 in Ekonomikum at 16:15. Don’t miss out!
