The plenary session of the EUROSFAT 2017 conference has been transformed into a Citizens' Dialogue. We expect around 200-250 people to participate live in the dialogue, including young people and people with a special interest in digital issues.
The Dialogue will focus on the Digital Single Market and, more generally, on the future of Europe.
Vice-President Ansip will be joined on stage by Leonard Orban, presidential adviser on European affairs and former European Commissioner for Multilinguism.

The European Commission is the executive body of the EU and runs its day-to-day business. It is made up of the College of Commissioners, 27 European Commissioners, one for each member state, who are each responsible for one or several policy areas. In addition, the 'Commission' also refers to the entire administrative body that supports the Commissioners, consisting of the Directorates-General and the Services.
The European Commission is the sole EU body capable of proposing new legislation. The Commission also performs an oversight function, monitoring whether European legislation is properly implemented in the member states. In the event of non-compliance, the Commission can coerce a member state to comply by starting a legal procedure at the European Court of Justice.
