Shaken between boom and bust cycles on the one hand, yet their strategic,
geopolitical location on the other hand, make the region of Central and Eastern
Europe and its neighboring areas ever more crucial for Western European actors.
The conference is dedicated to evaluating the opportunities for transport and logistics
companies in the emerging markets between Central Europe and Asia with a special
emphasis on energy logistics and related topics.
In panel discussions and workshops business managers and CEOs of Transport- and
Logistics companies together with high ranked political decision makers from the

investment- and business opportunities.

Location
Palais Niederösterreich can look back on a long and eventful history. It originally
housed the Estates, political representatives of landowners, knights, prelates and
municipalities, the forerunners of the present-day Lower Austrian provincial
government. They acquired the Landhaus in 1513 so as to be near the local ruler and
to be able to meet in Vienna. Precious late Gothic remnants of this Landhaus such as
the chapel and Gothic rooms have survived.
Until 1921 it served the people’s representatives of Vienna and Lower Austria
together. After Vienna became independent on 1 January 1922 the Landhaus
belonged to the Lower Austrian provincial government until it moved to Sankt Pölten,
the new provincial capital, in 1997.
