How the Forum was born
The East Forum (in the first Venice Forum editions) was born from the need to create an international meeting place where to explore themes and topics for discussion of European politics and from the need to strengthen UniCredit’s role as an actor in the international debate.
One of the objectives of the Forum has been – in a number of previous editions – to contribute to the debate on the integration of future Member States in Europe. The topics covered in the past editions were, among others, energy policy, industrial policy, migration and bilateral trade agreements.
