EU Industry Days 2019

EU Industry Days 2019 will focus on key industrial challenges such as sustainability, digitalisation, investment and globalisation. The event, on 5-6 February, will demonstrate how EU industrial policy benefits European citizens and provide input for future policy making. EU Industry Days will gather around 1,500 participants from across Europe and beyond, including stakeholders representing industry, trade unions, national and regional authorities, and civil society.

This event, organised by the European Commission and key stakeholders, is the flagship EU event on industrial policy. European industry creates jobs and provides opportunities to communities and regions, creating value for society and the economy. At the same time, it is going through deep transformation shaped by globalisation, sustainability, digitalisation and innovation.

A successful industrial policy needs to build on dialogue and partnership, removing barriers to development and making the best use of new opportunities while addressing societal concerns. In this spirit, EU Industry Days has provided a forum since 2017 for discussion between policy makers, industry and society to ensure that EU policies are fit for purpose.
