FACTS ABOUT EASTERN PARTNERSHIP

The Eastern Partnership (EaP) is a joint initiative of the European Commission, EU Member States and six East European countries: Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine. The objectives of the EaP are economic integration and convergence with EU policies, strengthening energy security, promoting democracy and good governance, as well as developing people-to-people contacts. More specifically EaP focuses, for example, on the visa facilitation and liberalisation processes or the conclusion of Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Agreements between the EU and the EaP countries. The Eastern Partnership project was launched by the Czech presidency of the EU Council, with the cooperation of Poland and Sweden, in 2009.

WHY PRAGUE

The Eastern Partnership was established at the European Union Summit held in the Czech capital, Prague, on 7 May 2009. The Czech Republic has been supporting the integration efforts of all the Eastern Partnership member states for past decade and perceives this platform as a basis for closer economic cooperation on the Union level.

WHO WILL BE THERE?

The conference will bring together inspiring combination of senior officials from the EU and the Czech Republic, EaP member states, state administration, business, banking sector and academia.

TERRITORIAL EXPORT CONFERENCES

The six specially designed territorial export conferences, organised in cooperation with the Chamber of Commerce of the Czech Republic, aim to bring the markets of individual countries of the EaP closer to Czech exporters and investors. Our goal is to attract more Czech and European exporters and investors to partner countries, as well as more exporters and investors from EaP countries to the Czech Republic and the EU.
