Department of Economics and Finance at Tallinn University
of Technology will host the 13th Conference "Evolving Challenges in European Economies" from 16–17 August 2021 onsite in Tallinn, Estonia. The event is organised in

the economy and the financial sector, and related
opportunities; macroeconomic effects and economic policy
considerations under global change. Submissions on other
topics are also very welcome.
