I'd like to thank KTH The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden, for hosting our 2nd Virtual Conference on Ukraine August 22 and 23, 2025. It was truly outstanding. It was an intellectual feast with 3 Nobel Laureates in Economic Sciences: Daron Acemoglu, Roger Myerson, and Paul Krugman delivering keynotes along with Yuriy Gorodnichenko and Subal Kumbhakar.
I was honored to also give a keynote (the first one) and have posted my presentation as well as that of my Isenberg School of Management, UMass Amherst PhD student Ismael M. Pour on the Supernetwork Center website: https://lnkd.in/gncCNfTK.
I would like to thank the President of KTH Royal Institute of Technology Anders Söderholm for his warm welcoming remarks as well as fellow members of the Organizing Committee: Lars Harvigson, Almas Heshmati, Hans Lööf, Paul Nystedt, Roman Sheremeta and Hans Westlund. I am grateful to all the presenters of papers as well as to the panelists who joined me in discussing: Challenges of Ukraine's Post-War Reconstruction. Thanks also to those who joined us from many different countries and engaged with us. The networks that we are building in support of Ukraine in terms of research, higher education, and policy-making are inspiring.
