The annual event, which is being held for the eighth time, will focus on international economic cooperation amid geopolitical changes caused by Russia's invasion of Ukraine, according to organizers.

Other topics include regional security and energy, public broadcaster Polish Radio’s IAR news agency reported.

Expected participants include former NATO chief Anders Fogh Rasmussen and Sir Richard Shirreff, a retired British Army general and former NATO deputy supreme commander for Europe.

The name of the two-day conference comes from the first three digits of an international retail bar code signifying that a product comes from Poland.

Polish Radio is a media partner of the event.
