Building the Largest Free Trade Zone in the World
!
The value of the goods and services that cross the Atlantic between the EU and the US amounts
to €2 billion everyday. European and American firms hold nearly €2 trillion in investment stock in
each other’s jurisdictions. The transatlantic economy is the biggest commercial relationship in
the world. But if trade already flows so abundantly, why negotiate a new EU-US trade
agreement? What impact would it have on the companies in EU and Estonia? And would your
company benefit from it and how? These are the questions that we will attempt to tackle at the
Annual Investors Summit 2014 with our guest speakers and panelists covering various industries
and business sectors.
