Kyiv will host NV’s new event, “Ukraine 2050: Dialogues About the Future” where the range of paramount topics - from security and economic growth to quality of life - are due to be discussed.

Global forecasts predict that China will become the world’s largest economy, with India surpassing the U.S., and the EU’s share in global GDP dropping to 10%. Emerging markets are set to dominate, and the world economy is expected to double. Average global temperatures will peak, and the world population will exceed 9 billion. 

The USA at the same time will lead efforts to manage AI, surpassing human intelligence.

Russia’s war against Ukraine has upended many predictions, casting a shadow of uncertainty. This conflict has marked a historical turning point, reshaping previous paradigms. Yet Ukraine’s fierce resistance has rewritten scenarios and forged new paths.

NV is organizing a major brainstorming session, becoming the largest independent platform for discussing Ukraine’s future—from security and economic growth to quality of life.

Where are we now, and where do we need to go?

Event Speakers Include:

  • Katarína Mathernová, EU Ambassador to Ukraine

  • Martin Harris, British Ambassador to Ukraine

  • Natálka Cmoc, Canadian Ambassador to Ukraine

  • Vitaly Portnikov, journalist

  • Tymofiy Mylovanov, Kyiv School of Economics President

  • Ihor Obolensky, Commander of the 13th “Khartiya” Brigade

  • Martin Jaeger, German Ambassador to Ukraine

  • Oleksiy Chernyshov, Naftogaz of Ukraine Chair

  • Mykhailo Vynnytskyi, Deputy Minister of Education and Science in Ukraine

The list of speakers is continuously updated.

The event will also feature a presentation of a sociological study by Gradus Research and NV, showcasing how Ukrainians envision their future.

Join this dialogue on development, resilience, and the pursuit of change.

Attendance for the in-person event requires registration. Full details can be found on NV’s platform.

Over the past seven years, NV has hosted lectures and discussion panels featuring prominent figures, including historian Francis Fukuyama, U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Bridget Brink, economist Anders Åslund, and James Robinson, co-author of the bestseller “Why Nations Fail.”
