International conference “PPPs in Germany and Belarus: comparative analysis and recommendations”
On 27 September an international conference "PPP in Germany and Belarus: comparative analysis and recommendations" was held at the President Hotel in Minsk.
The conference was co-organised by the German-Belarusian Economic Club, the law firm Arzinger & Partners and the National Agency for Investment and Privatisation (NAIP). The German Embassy in Minsk took over the patronage of the event. The conference was supported by many renowned partners, including: Delegation of the European Union in Belarus, as the General Partner of the conference - Representative Office of German Economy in Belarus, as the information partner - publishing house OWC-Verlag, as the partner - SCHNEIDER GROUP.
The conference had several objectives. Above all, it was to once again draw the attention of a wide interested public to the topic of PPP, which is important for the development of the Belarusian economy in general and for the intensification of German-Belarusian relations. The conference was supposed to be another opportunity to exchange experiences and views - both with German experts for the analysis of German PPP best practice models, and between representatives of government agencies and private businesses, i.e. potential investors in Belarus. This analysis and exchange should have promoted the development of synergy effects, the emergence of interest in the topic and the finding of new points of application for economic cooperation. Last but not least, the conference was to produce a newsletter with proposals for optimising the framework conditions for the development of PPPs in Belarus.
For this purpose, well-known German and Belarusian experts, who have extensive experience in researching the topic and developing the legal foundations as well as in developing and implementing concrete PPP projects, were invited. A detailed discussion of the specific aspects of PPP took place in three podium discussions. The conference programme is available here.
In accordance with its task, the conference was intended for experts from politics and economy of both countries - representatives of Belarusian and German administrations, ministries and authorities, German and Belarusian companies, analytical centres and scientists from both countries who work in the field of research and, of course, members of the public in Belarus.
More than 150 participants testify to the good attendance of the conference, which earned positive feedback from speakers and visitors alike. The success of this event supports us as DBWC in our ambition to further intensify cooperation between our countries by developing and initiating contacts.
