Connecting Europe
with Building Blocks

Making the Digital Single Market a Reality

#ConnectingEurope



AN INVITATION FROM OUR MODERATOR
JENNIFER BAKER




THE DAY 

High-level representatives and distinghuished panellists from the private sector (such as banking and telecom) demonstrated the value of the building blocks and the eIDAS regulation on trust services in the internal market for the realisation of  the Digital Single Market. 

This event also clearly illustrated how the building blocks facilitate the creation of cross-border digital public services and related services for citizens, businesses and public administrations. It also offered a unique forum for discussion on the future of the CEF building blocks and remaining challenges to be addressed in the realisation of the Digital Single Market.
