On the 30th of June 2023, the European Council called for an independent High-Level Report on the future of the Single Market to be presented at its meeting in March 2024.
Enrico Letta, Former Prime Minister of Italy, was tasked with the mission of stepping into the shoes of Paolo Cecchini, Jacques Delors, Mario Monti, and others, to assess the state of the Single Market and create new momentum for the economic integration in Europe.
At this very moment, like his predecessors, Mr. Letta is engaging stakeholders across the globe to gain an in-depth understanding of the economic landscape and investigate how the most recent geopolitical changes affect our Single Market, to enable the European economy to respond to the challenges ahead.
More information about speakers will be announced soon.
