36^th Frankfurt European Banking Congress

Europe in Action: Technology, Energy, Defence

Europe has heard the wake-up call for change. Awareness is no longer the challenge—action is.

The congress will assess whether Europe is moving with the speed, scale, and determination that today’s realities demand.

How can Europe unlock the full potential of the technology and AI revolution to boost productivity and competitiveness?

What will it take to mobilise the capital needed to accelerate innovation and scale breakthrough technologies?

Can Europe translate ambitious strategies into the investments required to strengthen resilience, industrial capacity, and self-reliant defence capabilities?

This year’s EBC will bring together leaders from business, finance, technology, and policymaking to address these questions and identify the actions required to secure Europe’s strength, resilience, and prosperity for decades to come.

The final programme is expected to be released in September.
