After two impactful and large World for Ukraine Summits in Poland, we are now taking the discussion to new places. This year, on October 19th, the third edition of the W4UA Conference will take place in Chicago, IL in the United States. The conference will continue to bring together governments, businesses, civil society and media to foster cross-sectoral exchange and cooperation in support of Ukraine. This time our focus is on best practices and ideas for reinvesting in businesses, treating traumas, and reimagining the future of Ukraine.

Agenda

Key Panels Topics:

1) Global Politics: What Implications and Challenges Does the Development of the Conflict in Ukraine Pose for the USA and the World?
