In an era defined by digital transformation, AI innovation, and the green transition, Europe faces both unprecedented challenges and extraordinary opportunities. At the heart of this transformation is political leadership and particularly the role of women policymakers in driving forward the policy frameworks, investments, and partnerships that will secure Europe’s position as a global leader in competitiveness.

This high-level leadership dialogue, hosted by WPL and  supported by Microsoft, will explore how women’s leadership is essential in advancing Europe’s competitiveness through:

  • Digital Innovation & AI Adoption: How can Europe lead in responsible AI, digital skilling, and cloud infrastructure to drive economic growth and global competitiveness?
  • Green Industrial Policy & Sustainable Growth: What policy frameworks and public-private collaborations will ensure Europe’s cleantech leadership while balancing economic resilience?
  • Smart Regulations & Market Integration: How can women leaders shape regulatory environments that support innovation, reduce bureaucracy, and unlock the full potential of the Single Market?
  • Investing in People & the Future Workforce: What strategies will help close the skills gap, ensure more women enter STEM and digital industries, and prepare Europe’s workforce for the future?

This conversation will provide an opportunity for high-level policymakers, industry leaders, and experts to exchange insights and identify actionable pathways to reinforce Europe’s position as a leader in the digital and green economy.

By bringing together key stakeholders, this lunch dialogue aims to highlight the critical intersection between governance, innovation, and inclusive economic growth, demonstrating that women’s leadership is a defining factor in securing Europe’s competitive edge.
