In the context of the modern scientific and technological revolution, there is a marked change in the main trends and forms of the globalization process. Thus, digitalization not only has a direct impact on the pace of integration, its specificity, but integration itself, its mechanisms of legal regulation begin to affect the latest digital technologies and interact with them as large-scale tools of globalization.

Legal mechanisms for regulating integration processes are changing, and new approaches and concepts of legal regulation of the latest digital technologies are being developed within the framework of integration organizations, primarily in the EU. At the same time, the emergence of innovations in the regulation of digital legal relations in individual countries is quickly combined and borrowed at the supranational European level, the study of which is of particular importance, especially in the framework of the Union State of Russia and Belarus and the EAEU.

The following problems may be proposed for scientific discussion:

• The influence of legal mechanisms used in integration formations on the development of legal regulation of the latest digital technologies.
• How can digital technologies influence the development of integration processes and vice versa?
• Does integration, digitalization, artificial intelligence, and the development of networking processes change globalization relations in today's world?
• How does integration influence the development of platform law and the formation of ecosystem law?
• What new trends are observed in EU law, including under the influence of digitalization?

According to the UN Sustainable Development Goals until 2030 it is necessary to develop a set of measures for adaptation to climate change. This is one of the directions of modern international cooperation, including the definition of science-based legislative proposals for the prevention of climate change and adaptation to it. Adaptation to climate change is recognized as a national task of the Russian government. Russia's strategic planning documents provide for a transition to a low-carbon economy.

Russia and the European Union are parties to the international climate regime, as well as those thanks to whom this regime was created. Moscow and Brussels were among the first to commit themselves to reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the atmosphere under the 1997 Kyoto Protocol. Cooperation between Russia and the European Union is not limited to the international climate regime. The parties have 27 years of experience in bilateral cooperation on environmental and climate change issues, the basis of which was the 1994 Partnership and Cooperation Agreement (PCA).

Since 2014, many cooperation mechanisms between Moscow and Brussels have de facto been frozen, and cooperation between the Russian Federation and the European Union under the PCA has been declining. But EU-Russian cross-border cooperation programs continued to function. In 2019, tensions between Moscow and Brussels emerged in the climate track of bilateral relations after the presentation of the EU Green Deal. The deal provoked a negative reaction from Moscow because, as an internal EU agreement, it had an impact on the Union's partners, especially in the economy. It also raised questions about how Russia and Russian companies should harmonize their environmental parameters and regulations with new EU norms.

In the spring of 2022, the European Union imposed further sanctions against Russia that affect joint environmental and climate projects, and suspended its participation in cross-border cooperation programs, which had been in place until then.

Questions for discussion:

1. How should Moscow and Brussels interact in the new legal and economic realities when bilateral treaties and agreements are de facto not in force?
2. How do Russia's and the EU's sanctions policies affect the parties' climate relations?
3. Is it possible for Russia and the EU to agree to take the climate agenda and climate projects off the table?
4. What are the risks and prospects of bilateral cooperation between Russia and the EU in the field of sustainable development?

Speakers: Russian and foreign representatives of science, education, business and government agencies, banks, all persons involved in the problems of Russia-EU climate cooperation.

The development of the digital economy in Russia envisages such a development of modern society that will allow the Russian economy to integrate into the global space. The program "Digital Economy of the Russian Federation" dictates new requirements to the system of public administration, organization and structure of the state apparatus. But despite the fact that the implementation of the Digital Public Administration direction involves a number of serious changes to simplify the interaction between market subjects and industries and the state, and interdepartmental interaction, it does not fully meet the challenges of digital transformation. We are talking about the formation of conditions by the state to ensure the development of information and communication technologies and effective interaction between subjects of markets and sectors of the economy in the field of entrepreneurial activity. Current political developments have required a serious adaptation of the public procurement system to the rapidly changing economic conditions. State support for business is on the agenda. But also the public customers themselves need help in a difficult time of turbulence. It is necessary to ensure a balance of interests of the parties in ensuring uninterrupted supplies and purchases, as well as to organize operational activities during the crisis.

Questions for discussion

• Transformation of public administration system for the purpose of business development;
• Procurement during the crisis and support measures for suppliers.
• Circumstances of insuperable force and their impact on contractual relations.
• Moratorium on recovery of contractual penalties.
• Amendment and termination of contracts due to material change of circumstances.
• "Sub-sanctioned" customers and new regime of non-public procurement.
• Procurement on marketplaces - a new reality for customers and suppliers.
