The 27th St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF) is set to take place from June 5 to 8 in the vibrant city of St. Petersburg. This year's forum centers on the theme \"The Formation of New Centers of Growth as the Cornerstone of a Multipolar World,\" reflecting the shifting dynamics of the global economy.
With over 18,600 participants from 139 countries and territories confirmed, including esteemed guests from the Sultanate of Oman, SPIEF 2024 promises a diverse and comprehensive dialogue on economic development and innovation.
Last year's forum witnessed more than 6,000 representatives from over 3,000 companies across 75 countries and territories, culminating in over 900 agreements valued at approximately $43.2 billion. This impressive track record underscores the forum's role as a pivotal platform for international business and economic collaboration.
\"The unprecedented interest from foreign partners and the media shows that the Russian market and, in general, Russia's economic model of development and consolidation, against the backdrop of serious restrictions and pressure from the collective West, has shown its competitiveness. Multinational and multicultural, value-oriented Russia is becoming one of the growth centers of the emerging multipolar world,\" said Anton Kobyakov, adviser to the President of the Russian Federation and executive secretary of the SPIEF Organizing Committee.
SPIEF 2024 aims to build on this momentum, fostering discussions and partnerships that will drive economic growth and shape the future of a multipolar global economy.
