About the event
Much as a fireplace poker stirs a fire to flame up, the new Poker Club is established to discuss and debate the true purpose of financial markets, as we face a century of increasing societal and environmental challenges.
The original Poker Club was one of several clubs at the heart of the Scottish Enlightenment where many associated with that movement met and exchanged views in a convivial atmosphere. Hume founded the club to be a welcome relief from sceptical depression. Something we could all benefit from. The new version of this club retains the ethos of open and spirited debate, but differs in an important regard. It is not run on a restricted membership basis; it welcomes diversity of thought and gender and is open for all to attend - free of charge.
