Subject: Invitation to speak at the EU Digital Summit, 15 May 2024 Dear Minister, I have the pleasure to invite you to participate as a guest speaker at the upcoming edition of the EU Digital Summit, which will take place on the 15 May 2024 in Brussels. Organised in cooperation with the Centre on Regulation in Europe (CERRE), this ambitious conference on the theme “Shaping Tomorrow's Digital Landscape: Innovation and Security” will provide a privileged platform for prominent policymakers, businesses, civil society, and academic representatives to highlight their priorities and directly engage towards Europe’s digital transition and safer online ecosystems. It will also be an opportunity to tackle the challenges of the EU’s digital strategy, notably in the context of digital skills, cybersecurity, infrastructure, incentives for innovation, and AI safety and regulation to ensure that citizens and businesses alike can thrive in the EU Digital Decade. I thank you for your consideration, and we hope that we will be able to benefit from your participation in one of our high-level sessions in conversation with a journalist from one of our media partners (CNBC, FT, WSJ, Bloomberg, Euronews). My team and I are entirely at your disposal for further information that will align with your expectations. Looking forward to your highly appreciated support. Yours sincerely,

Arnaud Thysen Director General
