The event "Fostering Europe’s prosperity and industrial transformation: Cooperatives as drivers of change" focuses on the vital role of cooperatives in addressing Europe's socio-economic challenges. It aims to highlight how these organizations can drive industrial transformation while promoting sustainable and inclusive growth. Key discussions will revolve around the ability of cooperatives to mobilize investments, create quality jobs, and enhance territorial cohesion. The event will also look into how EU policies can better support cooperatives through tailored financing and legal frameworks. By bringing together representatives from the cooperative sector, policymakers, and other stakeholders, the event aspires to strengthen the resilience of the Single Market and align with the broader EU agenda for a sustainable and competitive economy. This initiative underscores the increasing recognition of cooperatives as essential contributors to Europe's industrial strategy and socio-economic development.
