The Next 20 Years - Poland and CEE in in European Union. Learn more here: https://www.pwc.com/c1/en/the-next-20... Twenty years ago, on 1 May 2004, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia joined the European Union. These eight CEE nations returned to their European home after decades of divisions—and it changed the Union, as well as newly joined member states. CEE-EU countries gained an opportunity to build strong foundations for their growth story by continuing structural political and economic reforms, integrating into a European single market, opening up to the global economy and facilitating investment. This year's milestone is another opportunity to talk about how the experience of profound transformations may help respond to today's imperative of business reinvention. Weathering the turbulence of war in the region, and economic and political challenges, CEE countries are showing their resilience and courage and looking into tomorrow with confidence that they are stronger together. Our aim is not to look 20 years back but to project the future two decades using the lessons learned. For this, we conducted 20 brief interviews with business and political leaders from CEE, focusing on topics of transformation, economy and job market, and security and investments. The gathered stories and views simultaneously show wide national or sectoral and individual people’s perspectives of stepping into the next period of the EU history—the period where we continue to innovate, adapt to changing conditions, create long-term value, and build and strengthen our European home.
