Eestlased Kanadas | 29 Jan 2002 | EEEWR
What the Applicant Countries Have to Offer February 1, 2002 Munk Centre for International Studies University of Toronto Europe is profoundly changing. The introduction of the Euro is making today’s headlines, but soon the very complexion of the EU will change. The Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia, which are about to join the Union, bring into the EU sixty-five million consumers and a competitively priced, highly educated, labour force. The Centre for Russian and East European Studies and the Joint Initiative in German and European Studies, with the assistance from the Chairs of Estonian and Polish Studies, launch a major day-long conference on the business opportunities in an expanding European Union. The conference’s two keynote speakers — Prof. Willem Buiter, Chief Economist of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, and Dr. Miklos Marschall, Executive Director of Transparency International — bring significant expertise to the table. The conference panels will deal with the reform processes in the region; banking and finance; the old and new economies; and the environment. Participants include scholars, experts, analysts, and businesspersons from the applicant countries and the West.

Dear Sir / Madam:
Many thanks for directing me to the information I was seeking. I sure missed it in the newspaper's online article initially -- obviously, did not read it carefully enough.
Respectfully,
John Pahapill, P. Eng.
