Panel Session at Connect Europe’s Policy Summit 2025

Event: Connect Europe’s Policy Summit 2025
Speaker: Vincent Garnier - Dirctor General 
Date: 12 May, 2025
Location: BUMP, Brussels
Organiser: Connect Europe


As part of Connect Europe’s Policy Summit 2025, our Director General, Vincent Garnier, will moderate the high-level panel titled "The Digital Networks Act – A Bold Move for the Future of EU Telecoms Regulation."

This panel will explore the transformative potential of the Digital Networks Act, a landmark initiative poised to reshape telecom regulation across Europe. With Europe’s digital transformation reaching a defining moment, ensuring a connected, competitive, and sovereign digital future has never been more urgent. As technology and connectivity drive economic growth and societal change, the need for forward-thinking policy and investment is clear.

Alongside the Digital Networks Act, the Cloud & AI Development Act is set to redefine the European telecom landscape, paving the way for a smarter, stronger, and more efficient connectivity ecosystem. However, the evolving market also raises critical questions about competitiveness, consolidation, and scale—how can Europe foster growth and investment while safeguarding innovation and fair competition? Additionally, the continent’s ambition for technological sovereignty adds further urgency, as Europe seeks to lead in cutting-edge technologies, enhance resilience, and reduce reliance on global players.

Through these forward-looking discussions, Connect Europe’s Policy Day will bring together policymakers, industry leaders, and experts to shape the future of Europe’s telecom landscape. By fostering collaboration and action, we aim to drive Europe’s digital ambitions to new heights.
