CEPS is happy to organise, on behalf of the EU the third edition of the online Asia-Europe Sustainable Connectivity Scientific Conference (AESCON3) on 14-15 June 2023, in partnership with ASEF.

AESCON is a forum for experts from the EU and Asia to work together on expanding sustainable connectivity opportunities and cooperation prospects between the two regions. The AESCON3 aims to open dialogue to reinforce the digital connectedness of the EU-Asia scientific network. With an emphasis on the intersection of human-centric and resilient digital transformation, the upcoming conference will reflect on the digital partnerships between the EU and Asia, as well as the fast-changing global geopolitical and geoeconomic landscape. The conference will feature four-panel discussions mobilising diverse Asian and European expertise over two half-days, privileging a multistakeholder approach to digital connectivity challenges and opportunities. Discussion findings will be consolidated and published as a report containing key policy recommendations.

To have further information, you can directly visit the AESCON3 website. Registration is open until 14 June, 12 pm CEST
