News archive - [Event Announcement] Investing in the Western Balkans

The EBRD is organising a high-level regional forum on Investing in the West Balkans on Monday 24 February 2014, from 09:00 – 18:00. The event will bring together prime ministers, government ministers, political decision-makers and leading entrepreneurs.

After opening remarks by the EBRD President Sir Suma Chakrabarti and the European Commissioner for Enlargement and Neighbourhood Policy Štefan Füle the four separate panels will discuss regional projects and opportunities for investment in energy, transport, and corporates, as well as ways to improve investment climate. In a special session, the seven Prime Ministers of the Western Balkans countries and Croatia will address the audience.

The aim of the forum is to highlight potential investment and business opportunities in the region and promote the inflow of foreign direct investment and cross-border projects. The conference will provide a unique opportunity for a far-reaching exchange of views to bridge the gap between political commitment and real regional projects.
