As every year, we will meet in an exceptional place. The International Congress Centre in Katowice.
Dozens of online debates about an economy transformed by a pandemic - opportunities for a new opening. Current and important topics for the future of business and the market. Dozens of invited entrepreneurs and investors, government representatives and experts.
EEC Online - the event, for the first time organised remotely and 100% accessible on the Internet, will take place on the originally planned 18-20 May.
