Single Market for products: Fresh ideas to unleash the full potential
(From ec.europa.eu)
The European Commission is organising the conference, 'Single Market for Products: Fresh ideas to unleash the full potential' as part of the Single Market Strategy.
The event aims to gather collective intelligence from participants on how mutual recognition in the Single Market for products can be improved and on how the number of non-compliant products in the Single Market can be reduced.
Around 150 or more participants are expected, representing national authorities, business and consumer organisations, and conformity assessment and standardisation bodies.
In the morning, there will be short presentations of the problems that businesses and authorities are currently facing in these areas, followed by a brainstorming on potential solutions.
In the afternoon, there will be thematic workshops on specific topics, led by moderators who will collect and present the results to all participants.
The Conference will be opened by the Deputy Director-General of the Directorate-General for Internal Market, Industry, Entrepreneurship and SMEs, Antti Peltomäki.
The event runs from 9.00 to 16.30.
There will be a live webstream of the event.
