The CEUMC contributed to the European security and defence perspectives and to the discussions on "Unlocking Europe's Potential", which was also the motto and theme of the three-day conference.

The consequences of the war in Ukraine, in the Middle East, and the global pandemic have challenged governments and societies across Europe. Europe has the ambition and courage to bring about lasting change and shape a more sustainable future in the midst of uncertainty.

This year's edition of the Salzburg Summit focused on the economic and technological transformation that is crucial to unlock Europe's potential. The aim was to discuss and address trends, developments and the outlook at European and global level.
