The first European Mission Forum (EMiF) will take place early next year. The Forum will provide a platform for information and interactive exchange to support all stakeholders at European, national and regional level in the successful implementation of the EU Missions.

The event will introduce the European Mission Network EMiN to a wider public and offer participants an opportunity to learn about other EU-Mission actors from outside their usual networks. On the Forum's agenda:

• Speakers from the European Commission will outline the EU Missions policy approach.
• Experts and practitioners will showcase Mission implementation success stories to illustrate hurdles and potential 
• Parallel sessions with speakers from the R&I community, government and policy as well as entrepreneurs on topics including Citizens Engagement, Policy Implementation and the transformation of the R&I sectors
• The event will close with a panel discussion featuring represenatives from the 5 thematic Missions

More information on the 1st Forum, the detailed programme and registration can be found here. 

Background: The European Mission Network (EMiN), is created as an emerging community of practice that connects key players from the business sector, academia, civil society organisations as well as governmental actors. The EMiN will act as central information and exchange platform for the benefit of EU Missions actors across Europe and across EU Missions. Besides offering exchange and learning formats to its members, its aim is to bundle expertise, experiences, scientific findings and practical examples of adaptation to the mission environment. More information on EMiN (membership) can be found here.
