LSE public event moderated by Anthony Bartzokas, Associate Professor Department of Economics of University of Athens

LSE public event moderated by the Associate Professor Department of Economics University of Athens Anthony Bartzokas entitled “Unlocking the growth potential: regional economic corridors in South East Europe” will be held at Thursday, 16 May 2024.

Cross-border trade and investment levels and regional integration in South East Europe remain below potential, reflecting persistent problems with the business environment, market fragmentation, and low-quality infrastructure. In a period of elevated geopolitical uncertainties, the need to catalyse the growth potential in the region is evident. A distinguished panel of market participants and experts will consider the potential benefits of deeper regional integration in energy, digitalization, and transportation in the context of European integration, targeted support from international financial institutions and increasing private sector involvement.

University of Athens

The National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, which was inaugurated on May 3, 1837, was initially housed in a renovated Ottoman building on the northeastern side of the Acropolis. This building has since been restored and now functions as the University Museum. Originally named the "Othonian University," after Otto, the first king of Greece, it consisted of four academic departments and 52 students. As the first university of the newly established Greek state, as well as of the broader Balkan and Mediterranean region, it assumed an important socio-historical role, which was pivotal in the development of specific forms of knowledge and culture within the country.
