Romania of the Future – A new approach in business Economic trends 2024 (P)

The conference “Economic Trends 2024”, part of the national project “Romania of the Future – A new approach in business” brings into discussion a dynamic perspective, based on the analysis of three important pillars of development at the national level: macroeconomics, energy and entrepreneurship.

The overall picture of business in Romania will be outlined together with specialists from the three sectors of activity, in order to identify the opportunities and associated risks for Romania to have sustainable growth in the long term.

“We are in an era where technological changes and the demands of the global market put us in front of an important challenge: to continuously evolve and adopt a new approach to business. This approach is not limited to adaptation, but to innovation, to identifying and implementing solutions that will bring us to the forefront of a dynamic and competitive economic environment. Through collaboration and common vision, we can transform these economic trends into tangible opportunities for every actor in the business environment”, is the opinion of the president of the European Patronage of Business Women PEFA, Andreea Negru, organizer of the event on March 21, from 10.00, at the National Bank of Romania.

The first vice-president of PEFA, Lorena Stoian, says: “By creating an ecosystem favorable to entrepreneurship and innovation, we can stimulate economic growth and job creation in fields of the future. In this direction, I encourage the exchange of ideas and experiences between the participants present at the event, in order to identify the best practices and adapt them to the specifics of our local market. We want to use this conference to outline, together, the direction towards a prosperous future for businesses in Romania”.

The event is organized by the European Patronage of Business Women PEFA together with The Association for the Development of Local Entrepreneurship ADAA.
