The Third Energy FORUM
Budapest, 27-29 October, 2008
Under the high patronage of the President of the Republic of Hungary, Laszlo Solyom
Recent developments have put energy issues at the forefront of public policy discussions in the European Union, and in Central Eastern Europe (CEE) in particular. As historically high and volatile prices, climate change related concerns, sustainable development, rapid technological change, and national security considerations converge, CEE is facing many important strategic decisions that could have long lasting implications for its economic and political development. The Energy Forum series is becoming the key venue in CEE for exchange of ideas and open debate about these issues between political and business leaders in Central Eastern Europe, including ministers and heads of state. This year, the Forum will focus on the key energy challenges of the region and how the region might influence EU policy.
