Romanian Business Day Thursday, March 12, 2026

INVITATION

Castle de Wittenburg | Wassenaar

In leafy Wassenaar stands the beautiful Kasteel de Wittenburg, this year the atmospheric location for the Romanian Business Day.

The Romanian Business Day once again offers you a strong substantive program with plenty of networking opportunities. Central theme is the economic developments and investment climate in Romania.
There is also a focus on developments in startup financing and the impact of AI on Dutch and Romanian businesses

We have found a number of prominent speakers from Romania willing to share their views and their experiences with you on current developments.

  • According to the experts, what are the (economic) prospects for the coming years?
  • What can a digital investment platform do for funding startups?
  • What will be the impact of AI on business?
  • And how is the logistics sector meeting the sustainable challenge?

Also this year we are organizing so-called round tables where you can talk with the experts as well as with your fellow entrepreneurs about topics that are relevant to you. The roundtables are interactive, where each participant can provide input.

The day will conclude with networking drinks and the presentation of the Romanian Business Award.

For members of the Dutch Romanian Network participation in this day is free. For non-members the cost is € 45- per person, excluding VAT.

Register now for this day, it is the excellent opportunity to meet your (future) relations!
