2. Atrium Dialogue
“Partners in development: the role of development finance institutions during the current economic crisis and the views of our clients”
On 16 September 2009, the second international symposium of the “Atrium Dialogues” series which DEG launched last year at its new head office in the centre of Cologne took place in DEG’s atrium. The conference had the title “Partners in development: the role of development finance institutions during the current economic crisis and the views of our clients”. More than 120 participants from almost 40 countries accepted the invitation and came to Cologne to discuss the crisis and the special role of development finance institutions. The focus was on the question of how companies from various regions of the world assess the situation.
