The most influential event for CEE financial markets
This is the annual meeting place financing the prosperity of the CEE Region.
For 32 years, the CEE Forum has brought together the people shaping the region's banking, finance and investment. Every January, 3,000 Finance Ministers, Central Bank Governors, sovereign issuers, leading banks, investors, corporates and policymakers from more than 50 countries meet in Vienna to discuss the forces driving capital across the region.
Whether you are raising capital, allocating investment, financing growth or shaping policy, the Central and Eastern European Forum remains the region's essential annual meeting place.
For 2027, the Forum has expanded beyond its traditional format to deliver its most comprehensive programme to date:
-
New: Two full days of the flagship CEE Forum, now featuring six content streams across the programme.
