Emerging Markets Business Summit is a short-term business exchange program between universities from emerging countries across the globe. This year, the 8th edition of the Project will be held between June and July. This remarkable initiative launched by students of the Warsaw School of Economics and the University of Warsaw is an opportunity to get to know the business and political specificities of all countries aspiring to become the world’s economic leaders.
What we do
Knowledge sharing
Our team members write articles on current problems of emerging markets that are regularly published on the website. By addressing issues concerning economics, business, and social problems, we help students to better understand the opportunities and challenges connected with fast-growing economies.
Annual conference
EMBC is the biggest student-run conference in Central and Eastern Europe devoted to emerging markets. At the end of June the most prominent and experienced economists, financiers, and businessmen will gather in the Hall of Quotation at the Warsaw Stock Exchange to talk about new perspectives that the world is facing due to the growth of new economic powers.
Cultural experience
EMBS is an innovative cooperation program between students from emerging markets. Each year we invite two universities to participate in a 10-day long business exchange, during which they have a chance to take part in various workshops and get to know the polish culture. Afterward, our team participates in similar events organized by our partners.
Previous 2018 edition
EMBS 2018 was such a great experience. As a student with an IT background, before attending the program, I did not understand what business is all about and ways to expand my knowledge on it. But I felt so informed after attending the program, and most importantly, I had the opportunity to network with other participants from different countries. Throughout the program, the hospitality and cultural exchange was something that I remember till today, as it was just heartwarming and memorable. I hope we get to collaborate in the future again to participate in the EMBS program.

Unforgettable is a good word to define EMBS 2017. As one of the Global Cultural Transfer coordinators, I can say that it was a pleasure to participate in this project and build more than knowledge and networking, but also friends for life. Please contact faraway cultures and interact with different minds in an experience that shows how big the world is and how much we have to learn. I hope someday GCT and EMBS meet again.
