Panmure House was star-studded this week, with Wagner Moura, Amy Goodman and @NickyBenedetti joining us for a special live broadcast of @democracynow from Adam Smith's final home. As a non-partisan centre for social and economic discussion, Panmure House is proud to host conversations that encourage independent thinking, global collaboration, and meaningful dialogue on the issues shaping our world. Catch Nicola and Wagner's conversations with Amy on Democracy Now! here: democracynow.org/2026/8/10/e… The excitement continues today with the inaugural "Global Ideas Stage", delivered in collaboration with @edintfest at the King's Theatre.

That’s a wrap on the inaugural Global Ideas Stage for 2026! As part of Panmure House’s partnership with the @edintfest, Professor @DrAdam_Dixon joined @NickyBenedetti, The Right Honourable @GordonBrown, Professor Sarah Lewis, Professor Bryan Stevenson, Ken Burns and Amy Goodman (@democracynow) for an evening inspired by the coffee house discussions of the Scottish Enlightenment. The evening also featured outstanding performances from acclaimed artists, including Wynton Marsalis, the Jason Max Ferdinand Singers and Beth Taylor. We look forward to continuing this exciting partnership over the next two years. 📸 Andrew Perry / Edinburgh International Festival #EdinburghInternationalFestival #EIF #AllRise
