For those of you that don't know, TTIP is the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership.

If you're living, working or studying in Stuttgart, this concerns you.

TTIP is intended to stimulate reciprocal economic growth between the US and Europe and is intended to inject a stimulus into both economies.

• Some would argue that TTIP is the way forward for growth, employment, security and prosperity.

• Others would argue that TTIP undermines democracy, food safety and national law.

The Metropolitan Club is happy to announce a rare opportunity to hear both sides debated in English; we warmly welcome (alphabetical order):

• Mr Mark Lawrence, an activist of Attac Stuttgart and a firm opposer of TTIP

• Mr Jacob Schrot, President of Federation of German-American Clubs and a firm supporter of TTIP

This promises to be a thought-provoking and inspiring event - don't miss it!
