Third CEE Group meeting in Munich: Continued dynamic growth and business support

The meeting in Munich, which took place from Sunday to Tuesday, was the third event of the CEE M&A group ECOVIS. The initiative was launched by Ecovis Legal Poland and Ecovis Proventus Law with the aim of creating a cooperation platform for entrepreneurs interested in transactions in the CEE markets. The first meeting, held in Poland, started the process of building an international network of business partners. The next meeting, held in Prague in 2023, confirmed the need to further develop the initiative. Since its inception, the group has grown dynamically, with more and more countries joining the circle of CEE countries, demonstrating the growing demand for cooperation in the region. The growing network of ECOVIS partners is clear evidence that our activities provide real business support and meet the needs of international partners.

Common goals – common development

The third meeting in Munich strengthened the foundations of cooperation between partners from Croatia, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Slovakia and Ukraine. We were also honoured to welcome colleagues from Austria and France as special guests. The continued growth of the group and the increase in the number of participating countries prove that integration in the CEE region is not only necessary, but also effective.

By organising such events, we confirm that unity and cooperation across borders are key to achieving common goals and building a stable future in CEE. In these dynamic times, our activities support business development and strengthen ECOVIS’ leading position in the region.

Together, we build bridges that connect entrepreneurs and help them succeed in international markets.
