Executive Vice President Valdis Dombrovskis and Commissioner Paolo Gentiloni will take part in the 20th anniversary digital edition of the Brussels Economic Forum today (8 September). The forum is the flagship annual economic event of the European Commission and celebrates its 20th anniversary this year. In the exceptional economic circumstances caused by the coronavirus pandemic, and in order to ensure the health and safety of the audience, speakers and staff, the Forum has been transformed into a digital event.

The forum will focus on how best to restart the European economy. The topics under discussion will include fiscal and monetary policy, the Recovery Plan and the EU 2021-2027 budget, the green and the digital transitions and many more. This year the opening address will be delivered by Nadia Calviño, Third Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Economic Affairs and Digital Transformation of Spain.

Other distinguished European and international speakers include: Charles Michel, President of the European Council; Alexander Stubb, Director of the School of Transnational Governance at the European University Institute; Maja Göpel, Secretary-General of the German Advisory Council on Global Change; Sharan Burrow, General Secretary of the International Trade Union Confederation; Martin Sandbu, European economics commentator at the Financial Times. The conference will be live-streamed on the website and participants will have the opportunity to submit their questions to speakers through a Q&A on Sli.do. Further details and the programme are available here.
