This is a joint initiative between INSOL International and INSOL Europe and we anticipate that this will be a very popular event. The main organising committee have developed an interesting and topical technical programme including issues such as high-tech companies in distress, cross-border issues with Europe and the US and the always popular “view from the bench”.
Tel Aviv is a dynamic city, titled the “Mediterranean Capital of Cool” by the New York Times. This is a 24 hour city, combining sandy Mediterranean beaches, a buzzing cultural scene, incredible food, UNESCO recognised Bauhaus architecture and an international outlook. Tel Aviv is the economic and cultural heart of Israel, the "startup nation", with 9 million people, out of which 3 million live in the metropolitan area of Tel Aviv. Tel Aviv is the financial center as well as the hub for high-tech companies and many advanced technologies.
Prior to the seminar, on Monday 26th June, we will be holding a welcome dinner on the shores of the Mediterranean overlooking old Jaffa (a city 4,000 years old). Optional tours will also be available on the Saturday and Sunday prior to the seminar, so make sure you arrive in time to explore all that the area has to offer.

EECC Conference 2017 - Budapest, Hungary
Date
11-05-2017
Location
Budapest, Hungary
The 13th INSOL Europe EECC conference took place on 12 May 2017 in Budapest, truly one of the most beautiful European cities
The focus of the annual EECC conference was on “Winding up of (assetless) companies in Central-Eastern Europe – The reality show”. The conference was an absolute success and gathered the record number of attendees – more than 280 delegates from 16 countries. Especially, the conference was given close attention by the local insolvency practitioners, as about 30 percent of more than the six hundred Hungarian IPs got an opportunity of networking and joining the INSOL Europe family.
The programme covered a number of cutting-edge insolvency-related topics which were presented through lively discussions, excellent presentations and valuable case studies. The delegates had a unique opportunity to learn about the various nations’ peculiarities in the winding-up of assetless companies and crisis management, as well as in tracking, recovering and selling the assets, besides certain aspects of civil and criminal liability of the non-cooperating debtors. Another significant focus was placed on the new European Insolvency Regulation and the harmonisation of insolvency law across Europe, especially concerning the education of IPs.
In its turn, the informal part of the conference gave everyone the possibility for cultural interaction in a friendly environment in the local restaurants.
Photos of the event can be seen here and A full report will be published in the Summer edition of Eurofenix.
One-day conference on Friday 12 May 2017 with an optional dinner on 11 May.
We are delighted to invite you to Budapest, Hungary, for the Eastern European Countries’ Committee Conference on: “Winding up of (assetless) companies in Central-Eastern Europe – The reality show”. Budapest will host this event from 11-12 of May 2017.
Cited as one of the most beautiful cities in Europe, Budapest's extensive World Heritage Site includes the banks of the Danube, the Buda Castle Quarter, Andrássy Avenue, Heroes' Square and the Millennium Underground Railway, the second-oldest metro line in the world. Budapest has around 80 geothermal springs, the world's largest thermal water cave system, second largest synagogue and third largest Parliament building. The city attracts about 4.4 million tourists a year, making it the 25th most popular city in the world, and the 6th in Europe.
Budapest is considered a financial hub in Central Europe. Where else, then, to hold INSOL Europe's annual Eastern Europe conference to discuss the actual developments in the insolvency landscape and to emphasize the developments in Eastern Europe? More and more insolvency professionals are being confronted with assetless companies. What to do when a company does not seem to have any assets but still has some debts? How do the different jurisdictions deal with such situations?
At the conference, representatives of the Hungarian Ministry of Justice and Economy and the Ministry of National Development will be present. Practical solutions of how to sell assets and how to develop the education of insolvency practitioners are topics that will help improve the capabilities of the profession. Finally, on 22 November 2016, the European Commission published a proposal for a directive. What will that mean for practitioners and governments across Europe? The landscape will change, that's for sure!
All in all, attending our conference presents a valuable experience and an excellent opportunity to meet the profession’s experts and learn about the latest trends in insolvency. The conference will be preceded by an optional networking dinner in downtown Buda or Pest, during which the guests can have a taste of both Hungary’s culinary traditions and folk music and dance.
We hope you will enjoy our conference in Budapest, as well as the town and its surroundings.

INSOL Europe Annual Congress - Lisbon
Date
22-09-2016
Location
Cascais, near Lisbon, Portugal
In September 2016, the INSOL Europe Annual Congress will be held in Cascais, Portugal, a beautiful city close to Lisbon. The role of Portugal in the history of Europe is unique and today, Portugal is a modern, fully integrated European country. Many small and large investors from Africa, America and Asia are heavily investing in Portugal and sometimes even fixing their residence there. The restructuring of the local economy over the last 3 years has been a tremendous success, mainly due to the Portuguese cultural and ideological identification within Europe, which has helped the Portuguese make a significant restructuring effort. At the Lisbon Annual Congress we shall discuss which restructuring tools are more efficient and how to apply them. We shall approach restructuring from a positive perspective as an area of expertise to create value rather than share misery.
