Europe has almost single-handily created a global carbon market, which has seen phenomenal growth since the inception
of the European Union Emissions Trading Scheme (EU-ETS) in 2005. Since then, the emissions trading market in the CEE
region has steadily been up and running. Set against a background of tightening legislation on emissions and widening
political support for international trading schemes, it has become imperative for business strategists to get involved.
This conference will examine the key issues of the current global structure of a carbon reduction scheme and opportunities
for CEE Carbon Emission Trading.
