The Preliminary Programme for the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum is Now Available at http://www.forumspb.com
This year, the Forum will convene under the theme 'Sustaining confidence in a world under transformation'. The Forum programme will be structured around four major topics and will include discussions in the form of panel sessions, industry breakfasts, and round tables involving politicians and business leaders from around the world.
Sessions focussed on the global economy will cover the following:
Sessions on Russia will focus on discussing and unlocking Russia's competitive potential, as well as ensuring sustainable economic growth in both the short and long terms. These sessions will feature a number of presentations from key figures in the Russian government.
Sessions that fall under the heading 'Managing disruptions and embracing change' will offer an opportunity to discuss major technological, demographic, and social changes and the response of government and business to these shifts.
In addition, the Forum will once again include the acclaimed 'Conversations to make a difference' leadership series, in which leading international business, finance, technology, and politics experts will share their perspective on the current global situation for business and the economy.
