Representing the go-to hub for research, discussion, and collaboration in East-West Economics, the CERGE-EI Foundation, in support of CERGE-EI, is pleased to present their third annual Price of War symposium, Hot, Cold, Digital - The Three Theatres of War.

The geopolitical landscape has become increasingly complex and volatile. With China’s dominant influence in global markets and its strategic engagements in the Global South, coupled with the rising tensions with Iran, and ongoing conflict in Ukraine, the stakes have never been higher for global security and economic stability. Policymakers and strategists are looking to solve these challenges with informed, unified strategies to mitigate risks and ensure peace.

The 2024 symposium will address directly these issues, fostering critical discussions among leading global experts, with a focus on transatlantic collaboration. By bringing together voices from across sectors and regions, we aim to generate actionable insights that can shape the future of international security and economic resilience.
