Following our General Assembly we will be hosting our panel discussion Economic Shifts & Geopolitical Pressures: How is Europe’s New Leadership Team Preparing for the Future?

The European Union faces a series of complex challenges: it must enhance its competitiveness and ensure the security of its member states amid growing geopolitical threats. How can the new EU Commission successfully implement its “Clean Industrial Plan” and strengthen its defense strategies? Which reforms are urgently needed to make the EU future-ready?

With Donald Trump’s return to the White House, not only intensified trade conflicts but also renewed tensions within NATO are on the horizon. How should Europe respond to these developments to maintain its strategic autonomy and secure its position in the global order?
