Since 2008, the Verona Eurasian Economic Forum has promoted dialogue between people and countries representing different geopolitical, economic, and cultural systems; this dialogue is centered on research and cooperation for the economic and social development of the vast region of Greater Eurasia from the Atlantic to the Pacific.
Over the years, the Forum has acquired the culture, experience, and connections necessary to ensure credibility, impartiality, and independence from various pressure groups, ensuring that everyone can participate without bias or prejudice.
The Forum is organized by the non-profit Association “Conoscere Eurasia,” established in the Italian city of Verona, together with other non-profit partners.
Every year the Forum gathers representatives of many countries: statesmen, politicians, diplomats, economists, as well as top managers representing mining and manufacturing industries, energy and finance, infrastructure and transportation, high technology, agriculture, and medicine.
Given the annual format of the event, the Forum also utilizes two synergistic tools that work on a daily basis to develop the topics discussed each year within the Forum itself. This refers to the magazine https://pluralia.com/ and the platform for geopolitical and geo-economic analysis https://pluraliadialogos.com/.
The 2025 Forum gathered over 1200 people from 35 countries, with more than 400 companies represented.
The sessions are broadcast online in four languages (Italian, English, Russian, and Turkish) and have an audience of thousands of people around the world.
Various events and meetings are held within the framework of the Forum, openly or privately, including by various business associations and participating companies.
Special attention is paid to creating conditions for establishing direct contacts between Forum participants. Special rooms are equipped for such meetings.
The forum is widely covered by major international and national media outlets. Around a thousand original publications and television and radio reports are published in Russian, Italian, and dozens of other languages. Over 100 media outlets are accredited for the event, including leading news agencies, television and radio companies, newspapers, magazines, and internet portals from various countries.
The Forum’s rich cultural program includes concerts by world-renowned performers, film festivals, and various exhibitions. A number of events in the cultural program are open to residents of the host country.
Participation in the Forum is free of charge, but registration on the Forum website is required: https://forumverona.com/.
