Onofficial website The business program of the tenth, anniversary Eastern Economic Forum, which will be held in Vladivostok on September 3–6, has been published. The main theme is “The Far East – Cooperation for Peace and Prosperity.” The organizer of the EEF is the Roscongress Foundation.
"The Eastern Economic Forum has become one of the effective instruments for the accelerated socio-economic development of the Far East. The most pressing issues of attracting investment, creating new enterprises and projects, stimulating various sectors of the economy, improving social infrastructure and raising the quality of life of Far Easterners are discussed on the sidelines of the forum. Thanks to the concluded investment agreements, new high-tech enterprises have already been built and are being created in the Far East, and highly paid jobs are being created. The implementation of master plans for Far Eastern cities, carried out on behalf of the President of Russia, plays a major role for the Far East. In essence, this is a historic chance to transform urban spaces and change the living conditions of residents of the Far East. Among the important topics of this year are the discussion of technological development and the attraction of technologies, the growing energy needs in the Far East and many others. It is worth noting that the EEF has become a platform for strengthening cultural and economic ties with countries friendly to Russia. We are open to cooperation with those who are ready to work on mutually beneficial partnership terms,” noted Deputy Prime Minister – Presidential Plenipotentiary Representative in the Far Eastern Federal District, Chairman of the Organizing Committee of the Eastern Economic Forum Yuri Trutnev.
The business program will include about 90 thematic sessions, divided into seven thematic blocks: “The Far East – a territory for life and development”, “Recipes for growth: investments, innovations, integration”, “Openness and mutually beneficial partnership – the basis of stability”, “Technologies: from theory to economic effects”, “Cities – for people’s lives”, “Arteries of growth: how logistics changes the economy” and “In partnership between business and the state: a major reassembly”.
"The future of the multipolar world is currently being formed in the East. Russia is actively involved in these processes, consistently strengthening its positions in the Asia-Pacific region. A key element of the prosperity strategy is the comprehensive development of the Far East – a territory that is becoming not only Russia's gateway to the Asia-Pacific region, but also an important center of economic growth. Unique preferential regimes, large-scale infrastructure projects and systemic measures to support business are already making the region attractive for investment and innovation. The Eastern Economic Forum plays a special role in this process – over 10 years, the forum has become the main platform for building long-term partnerships with leading Asian countries. The program of the anniversary EEF gives priority to key areas of sustainable development: technological sovereignty, training personnel for new industries, creating a comfortable urban environment, integrating technologies into economic processes, and developing public-private partnerships. I am convinced that the solutions developed at the forum will become the basis for specific actions that will strengthen Russia's position as one of the centers of the new economy. “The Far East is a territory of opportunities, and its development is a strategic contribution to the future of the entire country in the context of the emerging multipolar world,” emphasized Anton Kobyakov, Advisor to the President of Russia and Executive Secretary of the EEF Organizing Committee.
