We would like to invite you to take part in the Russia-EU business dialogue on  "EU-Russia co-operation: Protect investments, avoid protectionism", which will be held on 4 June 2009 as part of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum. The focus will be on the current economic crisis, the need to protect investments and avoid protectionism, and how EU and Russian business as well as governments can co-operate on these issues.

The speakers will include high level political leaders from the EU and Russia, businessmen and think tank representatives.

It is the first time that the IRT has organised a business dialogue, which is open to participants of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum.
