EU Industry Days 2025

EU Industry Days represent the European Union’s leading annual platform dedicated to industrial policy dialogue, bringing together key industry stakeholders, fostering collaboration, and strengthening the knowledge ecosystem of Europe’s industrial sector.

The 2025 edition was held on 5–6 June in Rzeszów, Poland, under the auspices of the Polish Presidency of the Council of the European Union, serving as one of its central flagship initiatives.

In addition to the core agenda, the event included a range of parallel sessions, an innovation-focused exhibition presenting EU-driven solutions, and a “meet-the-experts” space where attendees could receive tailored guidance on European support instruments for industry. A dedicated matchmaking zone also enabled participants to establish partnerships and explore new avenues for business and cooperation.

EU Industry Days 2025 focused on the following priorities:

• Competitiveness and Decarbonisation: advancing markets for clean technologies, supporting the transition to low-carbon and circular models, expanding access to clean energy, enhancing infrastructure and regulatory conditions, and reinforcing the integrity of the single market.

• Innovation in Industry: mobilising and securing investments, developing workforce skills through upskilling and reskilling, supporting the growth of start-ups and scale-ups, advancing critical technologies, and promoting research and innovation activities.

• Security and Strategic Autonomy: strengthening defence capabilities, increasing the resilience of European value chains, improving access to critical raw materials, and contributing to Ukraine’s recovery efforts.
