CEPS turns 40

As we cast our gaze back on a highly eventful 2023, CEPS is proudly reflecting upon a year of significant achievements and dynamic engagement within the ever-evolving European and global landscape. From navigating transformative political shifts to welcoming new leadership, the organisation has been steadfastly resilient, embodying its commitment to insightful policy contributions and ‘thinking ahead for Europe’.

Reflecting on our 40th anniversary celebrations throughout 2023, we hosted a walking dinner followed by a thought-provoking high-level panel debate at BOZAR – The Centre for Fine Arts, reflecting on one fundamental question – Why did we create Europe, as we know it today, in the first place? Speakers included:

  • Margrethe Vestager, Executive Vice-President for A Europe Fit for the Digital Age and Commissioner for Competition, European Commission
  • Marija Pejčinović Burić, Secretary General, Council of Europe.
  • Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya, Head of the United Transitional Cabinet of Belarus
