Digital Platforms: A catalyst for Europe’s economic strength 

Digital platforms are reshaping the European economy, job creation, drive innovation and market efficiency. They are accelerating the digital transformation of SMEs and start-ups, fostering entrepreneurship, and providing new opportunities—particularly for those facing barriers to traditional employment.  

By leveraging digital technologies, these platforms are enhancing the transition to sustainable energy solutions and creating new ecosystems for smart mobility, such self-driving cars, which are essential for Europe’s long-term economic and environmental goals. 

As underscored in the Draghi Report, strengthening Europe’s digital infrastructure and embracing platform-driven innovation are critical to revitalising growth and reinforcing the EU’s global position. Achieving this requires forward-looking policies and strategic investments that fully leverage digital technologies. 

Join us for this high-level lunch, where we will gather policymakers, industry leaders, and key experts to discuss the future of Europe’s digital platform economy. 

This event is by invitation only.
