The Security Situation in Ukraine: Lessons for Foreign Investments

Zur Anmeldung

Seit Beginn dieses Jahres ist BIGS Partner im Horizon Europe Projekt CEDAR, das gemeinsame europäische Data Spaces für eine transparente öffentliche Verwaltung zum Schutz vor Korruption schaffen will. Eine der drei Fallstudien des Projekts befasst sich mit der Verwaltung von ausländischen Investitionen in den Wiederaufbau der Ukraine und ist Anlass für unser nächstes PizzaSeminar.

Wir freuen uns, unsere ukrainischen Projektpartner von SK Security, YouControl und Save Ukraine 2030 am 16. September in Berlin begrüßen zu dürfen. Neben Einblicken in Ihre Arbeit bei CEDAR, werden Sie die aktuelle Sicherheitslage und die politische Situation in der Ukraine vorstellen und über die Herausforderungen und Potenziale für ausländische Investitionen sprechen. Dabei werden auch rechtliche Aspekte und die Sicherheit der Investitionen thematisiert. Nach den Vorträgen wird es genügend Zeit für Fragen und Diskussion geben.

Das PizzaSeminar findet wie üblich in den Räumlichkeiten der IABG in der Friedrichstraße 185 in Berlin Mitte statt, Veranstaltungssprache ist Englisch. Bei Interesse melden Sie sich bitte über den obenstehenden Link an.
