About US-CEE Connection Weekend:
The Connection Weekend is an annual Conference co-sponsored by Catholic University’s Columbus School of Law in Washington D.C. and Jagiellonian University in Kraków.
Every year, the US-CEE Connection Weekend brings together lawyers, business leaders, academics, government officials, civil society representatives, and students interested in US and EU approaches to current issues and their impact on US and CEE country relations.
Under the conference title Transatlantic Challenges in Law, Business & Policy, participants engage in discussions on key regulatory issues, including capital markets, international trade, sustainability, public advocacy and digital transformation. Ongoing political and economic developments on both sides of the Atlantic continually renew focus on these areas, with further changes in regulatory approaches expected in the coming years.
