The EU Industrial Forum has held its third virtual meeting, in the presence of Commissioner Thierry Breton. The forum gathers experts from various fields to help the Commission implement the EU's New Industrial Strategy and its update. The meeting focused on the work to address Europe's strategic dependencies and develop transition pathways to facilitate the green and digital transitions across industrial ecosystems. The forum also made recommendations on Key Performance Indicators in key areas for the implementation and monitoring of the EU industrial strategy and prepare its contribution to the 2022 Industry Days in February.

A Europe Fit for the Digital Age Executive Vice President Margrethe Vestager (pictured) said: “We have already set Europe on a strong path of green and digital transformation. This forum offers a crucial space where key industrial and societal stakeholders can exchange expertise, experience and talent to help shape our way forward towards this common aim.”

Internal Market Commissioner Thierry Breton said: “The Industrial Forum can help the Commission pool talents from companies, big and small, from research institutions, from civil society. And all these talents should be used to support industrial ambition: a Europe that has leadership on technologies central to the green and digital transition of our economy and society. A Europe where we move from innovation excellence to facilitating mass deployment, creating export potential and quality jobs.”

The Industrial Forum is an inclusive and open mechanism for co-designing solutions with stakeholders, announced in the EU Industrial Strategy. It gathers a wide array of stakeholders, including industry, NGOs, research institutions and social partners from different industrial ecosystems identified in the EU's updated industrial strategy with the aim of facilitating dialogue and coordinating advice to the Commission.
