Event Details
EIS High-level dinners allow for open discussions under the Chatham-house rules. The spirit of the debate is to challenge and look ahead. Facts and visions are important drivers for the conversation. But it is also about concrete solutions for obvious problems. The SDGs provide for a useful guidance of the policy talk. Given the increasing role of technology in all areas of life, some sort of tech talk cannot miss on the agenda and this is where our Young Innovation Leaders will come in. The dinner participants are invited to dare saying, be provocative and not hide from the debate what is on their mind and why not in their heart.
Given the experience of Commissioner Oettinger in most crucial areas such as energy and digital, to name just a few, we can expect a very stimulating keynote that is going far beyond EU budget and that will set the scene for the further debate of the evening.
We are looking forward to three days full of passionate discussions that will hopefully have an impact for the good and for the better.
