Speakers news
Janez Potočnik key note speaker
With great pride we announce Janez Potočnik as one of the key note speakers during the plenary opening day. Mr. Potočnik is commissioner for Science and Research. "I can tell you that the headline message is this: the EU is moving in the right direction, but it should do more to be able to adapt to the challenges of our rapidly changing world. We have no option but to build a sustainable and knowledge-based society. The EU is working on it, but we should do better because we can do better. This is a transition that we have to make in order to remain globally competitive: the EU's assets do not lie any longer in resources or low-tech industries but in brains", the commissioner states. Meet and listen to his inspiring message!..."
