Summary/Abstract: For the past few years University of Euroregional Economy has been cooperating with Asian countries, particularly from Nepal, India, Bangladesh, Turkey, Tajikistan. We have implemented studies in English, on which the highest percentage of students comes from Asia. Furthermore,the University vividly cooperates, both in the scientific and didactic field, with academic centers from the countries of Visegrad Group (V4 Group) and East Europe. With that in mind, we organized a Scientific Conference regarding relations between V4 Group, East Europe and Asian countries. The main goal of this Conference was to bring closer problems in particular Asian countries to the inhabitants of East-Central Europe countries. It was also intended to find possible areas of cooperation between those two parts of the world. Lastly, the Conference was supposed to became a platform of exchange experience and knowledge between scholars, experts as well as students from both regions of the world. Many scholars and leading experts from Poland, Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia, Russia and Ukraine as well as from India, Nepal, Bangladesh, United Arab Emirates, Iran and China were invited. Such a variety of great minds from different countries definitely resulted in a wonderful exchange of thoughts and will inspire us to look for what Europe and Asia have in common in 21st century. The Conference consisted of the following thematical panels: Social and political issues & human rights: Law and economy, Security, Energy sector and renewable sources of energy. The Conference was held in English and will be followed by a publication that will also be issued in English.
