5th Annual Russian Economic Forum
This April, for the 5th consecutive year, the Russian Economic Forum
will bring hundreds of political and business leaders to London
from all around the world to discuss Russia's place in the global economy.
In 2001, the Forum saw a new high in attendance figures, with over 900
delegates and 65 speakers.
Confirmed speakers for this year's event include HRH Prince Andrew,
the Duke of York; Alexei Kudrin, Russian Minister of Finance;
Chris Patten, Commissioner for External Relations for the
European Commission; Peter Aven, President, Alfa Bank; Mikhail
Khodorkovsky, Chairman, Yukos Oil Company; Roger Munnings,
Chairman, CIS Region, KPMG; Andrei Kostin, Chairman,
Vnesheconombank; Digby Jones, Director General, CBI; Andrei
Melnichenko, Chairman, MDM Bank.
The Forum received an official endorsement from Russian President Putin
during his visit to London last December, when he referred to it as "the
culminating event in Russian-British trade and economic relations".
This year's programme will include 2 intensive plenary sessions and 16
workshops and panel discussions devoted to a variety of carefully identified
themes, including Russia's influence on international energy policy,
Russia's relationship with both the EU and North America, and Russia's bid
for WTO membership, as well as sessions on specially selected industrial
sectors, including oil and gas, telecoms, mining and metals, and much more.
Once again this year, the Forum has the official support of a long list of
corporate sponsors and partner organisations, including the Russian Ministry
for Economic Development and Trade, the Russian Ministry of Finance,
KPMG, British Airways, CBI, Yukos, MDM Bank, the FT, Moscow Times,
