Transatlantic Conference on Law and Business

Every year, the US-CEE Connection Weekend brings together lawyers, business leaders, academics, government officials, civil society representatives, and students interested in the evolving relationship between the United States and the countries of Central and Eastern Europe. The event provides a forum for exploring transatlantic perspectives on current legal, economic, political, and social issues, with a special emphasis on how these developments shape cooperation between the US and the CEE region.

Each edition of the US-CEE Connection Weekend highlights a timely and relevant thematic focus, reflecting emerging regulatory trends, strategic priorities, and challenges affecting both sides of the Atlantic. Participants engage in substantive discussions covering key areas such as capital markets, international trade, sustainability, digital transformation, governance, and the competitiveness of EU and US legal and economic systems. As political and regulatory landscapes continue to evolve, the conference provides an essential platform for analyzing ongoing changes and anticipating future developments.

The event features a dynamic program combining keynote lectures, expert panels, and interactive problem-solving sessions, allowing participants to exchange perspectives, develop innovative ideas, and strengthen academic, professional, and institutional networks. In addition to its substantive content, the conference includes social events designed to help alumni and other attendees reconnect with old friends, foster new relationships, and deepen transatlantic ties.
