Eastern Europe in Stockholm
This week more than a 1000 experts on Eastern Europe gathered in Stockholm for the ICCEES (International Council for Central and East European Studies) World Congress, which is held every five years.
ICCEES is a global network of research associations, institutes and individual scholars active in the field of Russian, Central and East European studies. East Capital was one of the sponsors of the congress and we also invited a group of the visiting economists to a lunch discussion at our office.
It is a great opportunity to have such a concentration of leading experts from all over the world gathered in Stockholm and the discussions at the seminars and the lunch were truly inspiring. We normally spend a lot of time travelling in the region in order to understand and analyse the economic, political and market development. So it was a welcome change to get a chance to listen to some of the most knowledgeable academics on issues ranging from the development of security institutions in Central Asia to the current economic challenges in Hungary – all in the same place in Stockholm.
