The Ukraine conflict is having serious consequences. The country is in a deep recession, Russian growth forecast was slashed down and the EU's frail recovery is threatened by a weakening demand in the eastern neighbourhood.

On behalf of 21st Austria and the Vienna Institute for International Economic Studies (wiiw) researcher Peter Havlik will present the institute's current analyses and assess the economic impact on individual European countries.

After holding the position of Deputy Director at wiiw for more than 20 years Peter Havlik is senior economist at wiiw and guest research scholar at IIASA in Laxenburg, Austria. His current research is focusing on issues related to European and Euroasian integration, competitiveness, economic developments in the CESEE countries. Peter Havlik who studied economics, economic statistics, computer sciences and sociology also worked as a consultant to the OECD, The World Bank, European Commission, the Czech and Slovak governments and a number of private companies. He was visiting professor at the Hitotsubashi University Tokyo and the chief economist at the Russian-European Center for Economic Policy (RECEP, TACIS) in Moscow.

The Vienna Institute for International Economic Studies (wiiw) is one of the principle centres for research on Central, East and Southeast Europe with 40 years of experience.

21st Austria is an initiative founded in late 2011 by leading Austrian companies together with the Austrian Central Bank and the Vienna Stock Exchange in order to start a dialogue on economic growth in Europe, with a special focus on Austria and the CEE region. It is a unique effort to explain the current basis of the country’s global competitive position and to share learnings and ideas for the future.

After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar.
