Georgia Business and Investment Roundtable
Vienna, Austria
Monday October 29th 2007
Introduction
Debate, networking, benchmarking: enhance your business in Georgia
Under Georgia`s new government, the country is witnessing a programme of rapid reform and business transformation. The government is pushing through reforms and creating a more business-friendly operating environment, from tackling corruption to reducing bureaucracy.
With positive relations with the US and the EU, and a commitment to extend the “hand of friendship” to Russia, Georgia is poised to become a competitive market economy.
To foster open and honest debate on its future, Economist Conferences is bringing key ministers and executives together in Vienna for a day of high-level, off-the-record debate on the issues that matter for Georgian business.
A focus on core issues for business, from customs reform to privatisation
During the day, delegates will discuss a range of strategic business issues crucial for Georgian economic progress:
- Which sectors offer the best hope for economic growth?
- How will Georgia balance its international relations—both eastwards and westwards?
- What can the government do to attract and make use of western funding for infrastructure development?
- Where is there greatest scope for improving the business operating environment?
- What are Georgias competitive advantages as it searches for a role as regional business hub?
