The extremely rapid developments with both disruptive and potentially destructive potential in recent years, alongside armed and trade conflicts, as well as technological and economic transformations, have constantly rewritten the rules and brought about profound changes.

From a geopolitical perspective, particularly in military terms, developments in the technological sector - especially the accelerated advancements in artificial intelligence - and potential tariff-related trade wars are topics that could have a significant impact on both the Romania of today and that of tomorrow.

In this context, we aim to analyze the risks and challenges facing the Romanian economy and society, along with the solutions and recommended approaches for managing them effectively.
