"We are trying to transform Georgia into a business and tourism hub. We expect to extend cooperation ties. From January 1, we will implement a new economic and tax reform which will be directed towards American companies to operate businesses with ease in Georgia. We are attempting to develop relations with the US in every sphere," the PM stated.

According to the organizers, the conference will bring security experts, Georgian politicians, civil activists and business representatives every September. The conference aims to maintain Georgia's place in the transatlantic agenda and to promote democratic progess and Euro-Atlantic aspirations.
