European Parliament - Room A3H1
“DRIVING DIGITALIZATION IN SOUTHERN EUROPE. The role of National Recovery and Resilience Plans and the current EU Policy Agenda” is the title of the public conference organised by the Institute for Competitiveness (I-Com), on behalf of PromethEUs.
The event took place on Wednesday 29 June, from 18:00 to 20:00 CET, at the European Parliament (Room A3H1).
The conference closed PromethEUs’ activities of the first semester 2022, which focussed on the discussion around the expected impacts of the digital pillar of national Recovery and Resilience Plans (RRPs) in the public and private sector, particularly on competitiveness. As a concluding event, the conference was also the occasion for PromethEUs to present its Joint Paper on the issue at stake.
By bringing together selected high-level speakers from institutions, business and consumer associations, the conference’s aim was to draw attention on the nexus between the measures envisaged by national RRPs in the digital field and the relevant EU policy measures and legislative proposals currently under discussion.
