“We focus on digital policy issues at the top of Europe's agenda and on emerging future trends at both European and global levels. Through a continuous programme of live debates and special projects bringing together stakeholders and featuring open and inclusive dialogue, our Forum helps create a space for greater understanding of and engagement in Europe's digital future. EIF does not itself take any position nor represent specific interests.”
