\u2018Economics and finance in times of uncertainty: challenges, adaptation, the future\u2019 was the title of the 3rd International Economic Conference for Early Career Researchers, which took place on 14 and 15 May 2026 at the Faculty of Economics, UO.<\/strong>

\u00a0The international group of young researchers who took part in the event represented universities from: Cz\u0119stochowa, Kalisz, Katowice, Kielce, Krak\u00f3w, Lublin, \u0141\u00f3d\u017a, Opole, Pozna\u0144, Rzesz\u00f3w, Tarn\u00f3w, Toru\u0144, Warsaw, Wroc\u0142aw and Zielona G\u00f3ra.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

On the first day of the conference, speakers discussed inter alia: financial stability, institutions and macroeconomic policy during the crisis, financial cybersecurity, the green transition, and the use of AI in business. The topics were discussed by 24 speakers who took part in four panel sessions and one plenary session.<\/p>\n\n

The presentations were prepared by: Maciej Krzysztoszek, MA, Wojciech Kie\u0142bik, MA, Zofia Bartkowiak, MA, Magdalena Ebisch-Stenzel, MA, Alicja Gw\u00f3\u017ad\u017a, Aleksandra Lesiuk, Sabina Klosa, MA, Natalia Miler, \u0141ukasz Szerl\u0105g, MA, Sebastian Domaga\u0142a, MA, Paulina Musia\u0142, MA, Klaudia Sobieraj, Mi\u0142osz Nyk, Adrian Kopacz, Marcelina Kosiorowska MSc and Pawe\u0142 Zabilski, Krzysztof Dr\u00f3\u017cd\u017c MA, Dr Dominik Franczak, Przemys\u0142aw Grzelczyk MA, Aleksandra Wolniak, MSc, Wiktor Maci\u0105\u017cek, Konrad Celer MA, Ekene Obi, MA, and Emilia Klocek.<\/p>\n\n

In addition, the following students presented their posters: Piotr Wasaty, MA (\u2018Assets resilient to market fluctuations and inflation: the case of the music market, using a royalty trading platform\u2019), Karolina Gryl (\u2018The price of disengagement: the economic and social costs of quiet quitting\u2019), Kamil Brzank, Paulina Sobstyl and Zuzanna Wadowska (\u2018Generation Z\u2019s propensity to save in times of growing economic uncertainty\u2019) and Tobias W\u0105sik (\u2018Convergence, acceleration and determinants of the income potential of municipalities in the Opole Voivodeship\u2019).<\/p>\n\n

\u2018The aim of the conference is to review the research of early-career researchers from across Poland. Participants share with one another their research methods and approaches, said Prof. Dominika Malchar-Michalska. \u2018The great value of this conference lies in the opportunity it provides to build relationships, get to know one another and expand one\u2019s professional network. Such connections may lead to joint projects and research in the future.\u2019 Academic conferences are not merely a platform for presenting research findings. They also provide a space for conversation, experience sharing, discussion and exploring opportunities for future academic collaboration.<\/p>\n\n

On the second day, there were even more panel sessions \u2013 nine in total. They covered topics such as artificial intelligence and cybersecurity in the economy, the economics of uncertainty, crises, interventionism and financial stability, education and the labour market, ESG in strategy and operations, globalisation, trade, supply chains, agriculture, households and, finally, contemporary industry challenges.<\/p>\n\n

\u2018Everyone will find something to suit them here, from topics relating to artificial intelligence to those concerning the natural environment. Issues such as finance and banking have also been raised,\u2019 emphasised Alicja Maryniak, Chair of the Student Research Group of Economists. ‘Given how complex the economy is, I believe that each of these issues is important, as they influence decisions made at the highest levels and, consequently, our daily lives. Thanks to this conference, early-career researchers can show their work and learn first-hand how to speak in public and manage stress. Such an event also serves as motivation to carry out research and not leave it gathering dust in a drawer, but to share it with the world.’<\/p>\n\n

The conference was organised by: The Faculty of Economics, the Institute of Economics and Finance, and the Student Research Group of Economists at the University of Opole.<\/p>\n\n
