The 2nd Albania Business & Investment Summit is scheduled for 14 & 15 September, 2007 in Tirana at the Sheraton Hotel. The summit will focus on the fast-growing economies of the Western Balkans region.

With its developing market economy, Albania offers many opportunities for investors, not least private equity and infrastructure. It offers a significant two-way trading potential, especially with EU markets. Albania has also entered into free trade agreements with all Balkan countries, creating new opportunities for trade within the region.
Albania ‘s economy remains one of the fastest growing in Europe, according to the IMF and the local financial industry has been gaining strength and has brought more certainty and stability for economic transactions. The summit will therefore also focus on the on-going privatization process, which presents opportunities in strategic sectors, power generation, infrastructure and communications, oil and gas, telecommunications, finance and banking.
