The 28th St.
Petersburg International Economic Forum will be held on 18–21 June 2025.
“SPIEF 2025 will take place at a critical moment for
the global economy, when the challenges of sustainable development,
digitalization and climate change require coordinated efforts. The Forum will
be not only an arena for strategic discussions, but also a platform for finding
practical solutions to adapt the global economy to the new realities. The
success of SPIEF 2024 demonstrated the high importance of this platform: 21,800
people from 139 countries and territories took part, and 1,073 agreements
totalling over RUB 6.4 trillion were concluded.
It is important to note the participation of a large
number of representatives of BRICS countries, where Russia holds the presidency
in 2024. The presence of the BRICS countries not only strengthened economic
cooperation, but also facilitated the creation of new initiatives in the field
of sustainable development and infrastructure projects. These achievements
confirm the need to continue the dialogue at the highest level. I am confident
that SPIEF 2025 will become a key instrument for developing new strategies to
cope with global economic challenges,” said Anton Kobyakov,
Adviser to the President of the Russian Federation and Executive Secretary of
the SPIEF Organizing Committee.
