During the XVIII Biennial Conference of the European Association of Comparative Economics (EACES) in Belgrade, two senior members of ISET faculty, Norberto Pignatti and Karine Torosyan, have been elected President and Secretary of the Association, respectively, for the 2024-2026 term. ISET congratulates them on this professional achievement and wishes them continued success in both EACES and their work at ISET.

EACES was founded in Verona, Italy, in September 1990 during an international conference attended by 160 economists from 24 countries, all conducting research in Comparative Economics. The Association was established to promote research and scientific exchanges in this field. Today, EACES has grown to over 400 members, including nine institutional members.
