The two-day conference is the first major OSCE event for private sector participants since the CSCE Conference on Economic Co-operation in Bonn in 1990. “The aim of the conference is to contribute to both economic opportunities and broader political confidence-building,” the Chairperson-in-Office stressed. The conference, which is expected to create momentum for greater economic exchange in the OSCE area and further the removal of barriers to cross-border co-operation, is a central element in Germany’s 2016 OSCE Chairmanship programme. It is an opportunity for policy makers and business representatives to identify technical bottlenecks and obstacles to economic co-operation and to discuss different approaches to overcoming them, focusing on concrete solutions.
