EU-Asia Connectivity: Building Bridges for a Sustainable Future with President Juncker



This event builds on the recent European Commission Communication Connecting Europe and Asia: Building Blocks for an EU Strategy. It is a first concrete effort to facilitate much deeper ties between Europe and Asia and spearhead the promotion of shared values and joint interests: from upholding the rules-based, multilateral order and developing high standards for digital and physical infrastructure, to embracing sustainability and clean technologies.

We are delighted that President Juncker himself will be opening this Forum, which will take place on Friday, 27 September 2019, from 09h00-17h00 in the Charlemagne building of the European Commission, 170, rue de la Loi, Brussels. President Juncker has invited Shinzo AbePrime Minister of Japan, to open the event by his side, thus highlighting the key strategic partnership and unique bilateral relationship between the EU and Japan, including on connectivity. 

In a mix of keynote addresses by high-ranking political leaders and interactive panels, speakers will explore connectivity as a global megatrend, and extrapolate what it means for the EU-Asia relationship, as well as the wider world. In particular, connectivity will be examined through various angles, from geopolitics and economics to standards and finance.

We would be most grateful if you could confirm your participation at your earliest convenience, as seats will be assigned on a first-come, first-served basis.
