Business programme

The shifting geopolitical landscape has spurred the emergence of novel economic spaces and avenues of development across various regions worldwide. In the face of economic sanctions and adversarial rhetoric from unfriendly countries, Russia has redirected its focus towards strategically significant and dependable partners. The well-established and time-tested cooperation among the EAEU countries has demonstrated its efficacy and now holds vast potential for economic advancement among all member states. Today, bolstering integration processes involving the business communities of CIS and EAEU nations is of utmost importance: fostering new formats, investing in promising ventures, and nurturing innovation and initiative. At the core of this vision for business consolidation lies youth entrepreneurship, where individuals are keenly interested in forging fresh channels of communication and establishing robust economic ties. Achieving this necessitates the implementation of effective tools and mechanisms to facilitate mutually beneficial interactions and incentivize collaborative initiatives. How can stakeholders involved in interstate economic integration navigate the process of establishing multi-channel connections? Which avenues prove to be the most effective and beneficial for each party? How can one steer clear of misguided and unpromising paths? What mechanisms and tools should be developed or upgraded to ensure synchronized growth of youth entrepreneurship across EAEU countries? What barriers and limitations exist, and how can they be overcome? Are there sufficient resources and willingness among market participants and government entities to facilitate these endeavours?
