Warsaw The V4 Forum proved to be the ultimate kick-off of the regional event-road show and the organisers set the bar extremely high for the events to follow. By attending an inspiring lecture from the IMF’s most senior representative for the region and a workshop by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the V4 Forum provided me with new and unique perspectives on growth and investment in this region from a very different angle than most parties in the corporate world would. In addition to the demanding schedule during the day, the participants were offered the opportunity to participate in some of the best social happenings that Warsaw has to offer. Additional key learnings: choose different airline operator because the current one didn’t provide free lunch as stated on ticket, buy correct metro ticket in Copenhagen to save €100 in fines!
