PROGRAMME

Two Years Out: the New Norm or More Changes to Come?
Nordic and Western businesses in Russia were rocked two years ago by geopolitical events and their implications on business. Now, two years out, many companies have been able to adjust to the current situation, many have left Russia altogether, and many more are simply waiting for better times.

Welcome
