World Economic Forum Russia CEO Roundtable
Saint Petersburg, 9-10 June 2007

In June 2007, the World Economic Forum held its Russia CEO Roundtable in Saint Petersburg. This high-level series of industry workshops for CEOs and chairmen of Forum Members and Partners took place on the occasion of the XI Saint Petersburg International Economic Summit, organized by the Russian Ministry of Economy and held under the auspices of President Vladimir Putin.
The first day of the Saint Petersburg International Economic Summit assessed opportunities and threats in Russia today, and the second day focused on regional integration trends and Russia’s role in BRIC and other emerging markets.

Participation in this combination of meetings – the large official Saint Petersburg Summit and the smaller, more selective World Economic Forum Russia CEO Roundtable – offered a unique opportunity for CEOs and chairmen of Forum Members and Partners active in Russia to gain the latest business and political insight as well as engage in informal dialogue with the Russian leaders of today and tomorrow.
