Balkan Alumni Summit: Securing Regional Prosperity through NextGen Leadership

The Balkan Alumni Summit, titled "Securing Regional Prosperity through NextGen Leadership," will take place from 27 to 29 May 2025 at the Marriott Hotel in Skopje, North Macedonia. The summit is organized by the Macedonian-American Alumni Association, with the support of the U.S. Embassy in North Macedonia.

This regional event will bring together young leaders and alumni association representatives from across the Balkans—North Macedonia, Albania, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Kosovo, Montenegro, Serbia, and Bulgaria—to address key challenges facing the Western Balkans, particularly in relation to EU integration, democratic values, innovation and investment opportunities and regional cooperation.

The summit will feature panel discussions, interactive workshops, and networking sessions designed to empower participants to advocate for democratic values, counter anti-EU narratives, and foster regional collaboration. Participants will also develop strategies to combat corruption, promote digital literacy, and strengthen networks that support EU integration—ultimately working toward a more informed, resilient, and collaborative youth across the region.

Key highlights will include:

  • Keynote addresses and expert panels on regional challenges

  • Solution-oriented interactive workshops

  • Breakout sessions for actionable plans and project development

  • Networking opportunities to build lasting cross-border connections
