The broadcast will start on 31 January at 2 pm (Vilnius time).​ 

The fourth discussion “What do Belarus Businesses Think?” will analyse the results of the latest research on the competitiveness of the regions in Belarus, carried out by the Research Center of the Institute for Privatization and Management (IPM RC).

 

Alexander Chubrik, director of the IPM RC will present research on “Competitiveness of Regions in Belarus: General Review”, which analyses the integrated indicators of competitiveness in the regions of Belarus. The research was based on the latest official statistical data and polls of entrepreneurs.

After the presentation, representatives of various Belarusian business associations and independent experts will discuss what Belarusian businessmen think about the business climate in their country, as well as the country's infrastructure, institutions and policies.

Vadim Sehovich from the Belarusian news portal “Ezhednevnik” will compare and contrast the results from the ratings of the most successful Belarusian businesses. Sergei Nikoliuk from the Institute of Independent Socio-Economic and Political Studies will discuss the public's attitude towards the business climate in Belarus. The discussion will be moderated by journalist Maria Sadovskaya-Komlach.
