Europe faces a new world. Geopolitical turbulence contested supply chains, and renewed pressure on European security have made one thing clear: the UK and the EU need each other more than ever. The question is: how do we turn one of the world's most integrated technology relationships into a strategic partnership fit for a new age?
Join us in Brussels for the launch of techUK's brand-new report, Towards a UK–EU Partnership for a New Age, bringing together representatives from the EU institutions, EU Member State permanent representations, UK Government, and leading industry voices ahead of the upcoming UK–EU Summit.

- Get an industry-grounded view on current policy developments
- Shape the conversation on regulatory interoperability, digital standards, cybersecurity, and defence cooperation
