Business programme architecture released for EEF 2024

The business programme architecture of the Eastern Economic Forum 2024 (EEF), which will take place on 3–6 September on the campus of Far Eastern Federal University in Vladivostok, has been released on the official EEF website. The main theme of the Forum this year is “Far East 2030. Combining Strengths to Create New Potential”. The EEF is being organized by the Roscongress Foundation.

“Russia continues its pivot to the East. This requires the construction of new railways and highways, energy facilities, and further steps to develop the Northern Sea Route. The key to the accelerated development of the Far East is the support of Russian President Vladimir Putin and his vision of the priority challenges facing the macro-region. The head of state has declared the development of the Far East a national priority for the entire 21st century. For this, unique support measures are being developed and introduced, which are then being extended to other territories of the country. For the ninth year now, the results of this development have been presented at the Eastern Economic Forum, which has not only become one of the largest international platforms for meetings with leading Russian companies and foreign partners, but also a tool for thoroughly changing living conditions in the Far East and the Arctic,” Russian Deputy Prime Minister and Plenipotentiary Representative of the Russian President in the Far Eastern Federal District Yury Trutnev said.

The business events of the EEF 2024 are split into seven thematic pillars: “New Contours of International Cooperation”, “Technologies to Ensure Independence”, “Financial Value System”, “The Russian Far East”, “People, Education, and Patriotism”, “Transport and Logistics: New Routes”, and “Master Plans: From Architecture to the Economy”.

“The Eastern Economic Forum has established itself as the most important platform for intensifying cooperation in the Asia-Pacific region. A constructive international dialogue is of particular importance today amidst all the global changes. Due to the growing demand for sovereign development, countries are looking for new growth points, which dictates the priorities of the upcoming Forum. Representatives of Russian and foreign government bodies, as well as expert and business communities, will discuss improvements to global trade instruments and the interstate settlement system, ways to achieve technological sovereignty, as well as issues concerning full-scale cooperation, including as part of integration associations. Much attention will be paid to the development of the Russian Far East. The EEF will address such topics as economic potential for territorial development, preferential regimes, and master plans for Far Eastern cities. I firmly believe that the Forum will help to outline new development trajectories amidst these global changes and develop mechanisms that will ensure Russia’s leadership in cooperation with its partners in the Asia-Pacific region,” Adviser to the Russian President and Executive Secretary of the EEF Organizing Committee Anton Kobyakov said.

As part of the “New Contours of International Cooperation” pillar, participants will discuss the global challenges facing Russia and countries of the Asia-Pacific region, specifically the role of Shanghai Cooperation Organization and BRICS countries in building a multipolar world, investment cooperation, climate agenda issues, and many other topics.

The “Technologies to Ensure Independence” track includes sessions devoted to the data economy, digital transformation of states, modernization of production, artificial intelligence, new energy, and other issues.

The development of global trade and investment, as well as monetary policy and intellectual property issues will be the focus of the “Financial Value System” pillar.

The “Transport and Logistics: New Routes” will feature discussions about the prospects of the Northern Sea Route, cooperation in logistics, the development of international transport corridors, as well as how to increase the connectivity of the regions that comprise the Far Eastern Federal District.

Participants in the pillar “The Russian Far East” will look at ways to improve preferential regimes and conditions for small businesses, measures to support the population, and the development of promising areas in the economy of the macro-region.

The “Master Plans: From Architecture to the Economy” pillar will address new housing construction technologies, modern transport systems, the digitalization of cities, and the development of a comfortable living environment.

The “People, Education, and Patriotism” section will be devoted to preserving traditional family values, new trends in secondary and higher education, patriotic education, and support for the culture of Indigenous peoples.

The Forum programme also includes business dialogues between Russian entrepreneurs and their partners from China, India, and ASEAN countries.

The 2nd Falcon Day International Forum will take place on the opening day of the EEF. In addition, the BRICS Creative Innovations Forum, the APEC International Conference on Higher Education Cooperation, and the Day of the Future youth programme are also scheduled to be held. Per tradition, the regions of the Far Eastern Federal District will present their achievements at the “Far East Street” exhibition, which will take place on 3–8 September.
