The TCS Daily Hayek Series is a policy forum that brings together newsmakers and public opinion leaders to discuss public policy issues of major consequence.
The Hayek Series was launched in Brussels, Belgium in April 2003 and featured EU Commissioner for Internal Market, Taxation and Customs Union, Frits Bolkestein, along with Dutch economist Hans Labohm of the Clingendael Institute in the Netherlands. Their presentation drew leading journalists, diplomats and corporate representatives together for an intimate discussion.
Since then, the Hayek Series has continued to be a leading forum for the exchange of ideas on a variety of topics related to free markets, economic growth and other major issues of the day. In 2006, TCS expanded the Hayek Series with forums in Washington, DC to discuss issues the American economy faces in a continually changing world.

Friedrich von Hayek
As a defender of the free market and of classical liberal principles, Austrian born economist Friedrich von Hayek’s theories on markets made him one of the giants of the 20th Century. His ideas espoused a society based upon freedom of association and exchange according to the rule of law and away from a state-controlled or “planned” economy.
Hayek won the Nobel Prize for Economics in 1974. His seminal work, The Road to Serfdom, is widely acclaimed as one of the top non-fiction books of the last century.
