The event considered the aspects of promoting competition in the field of public procurement based on digitalization, compliance with bidder qualification requirements, banking support and improved personnel training. Special attention was paid to problematic issues of cross-border access to national services. Maksim Yermalovich, Minister in charge of Competition and Antitrust Regulation of the Eurasian Economic Commission, informed the conference participants about the trends in the EAEU public procurement market. In particular, he dwelled on implementing the regulation goals and principles in the field of public procurement as defined in the Treaty on the Union. The EEC Minister drew attention to the functioning of the non-competitive public procurement segment where competitive mechanisms are now being actively introduced. "This enables increasing cross-border supply of goods for state needs.

The EEC Minister explained that the EAEU law does not provide for such procurement methods so far. However, their use is being actively discussed by experts. It is in the interests of the Member States to ensure the coordinated introduction of innovations based on unified regulation. The conference was held by the EEC Competition and Antitrust Regulation Unit jointly with the Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation. The event was attended by representatives of authorized authorities of the Member States, e-commerce platforms and EAEU businesses. Chang Yong, Deputy Director of the Department of Treasury of the Ministry of Finance of the People's Republic of China, delivered a video address to the conference participants.
