"At such an important juncture for both the European and the global economy, the EPC's critical analyses and ideas are needed more than ever."

"The EPC proposals on the reform of economic governance marry ambition and realism: they push the frontier of coordination and “togetherness” whilst considering that in Europe, we need to accept to remain in a second-best world. Nonetheless, the EU and the EA would become considerably stronger and better equipped to face an increasingly uncertain future if such proposals were pursued."

"Over the first 25 years of excellent work by the European Policy Centre, the abbreviation EPC has also come to stand for Enlightening, Participatory, Constructive. Under these guiding stars, I wish you a brilliant future: Ad multos annos."

"I want to take this opportunity to thank the EPC for its excellent service to the EU in the past 24 years. It's impressive! Thank you very much – we all count on your reports. They are read by politicians all over Europe."

"The contribution of the EPC task force to explore the potential of digitalisation on the circular economy has been fundamental in opening new areas of work and identifying possible barriers."

"I am particularly grateful to the excellent group of experts that have contributed to EPC publication 'Towards an ambitious, broad, deep and flexible EU-UK partnership?'. Thanks to them, the political, economic and social intricacies of the United Kingdom’s departure from the European Union can be understood more broadly."

"I think the EPC is doing excellent work and I’m honoured to be part of its Strategic Council."

"It’s a pleasure to speak at the European Policy Centre – an organisation which for almost two decades has been at the forefront of discussions on the European Union – leading the debate on issues such as the EU’s place in the world, migration and diversity, and the promotion of economic growth."

"For over 20 years, the European Policy Centre has been at the centre of the debate on Europe. Your ideas, your thoughts, and sometimes your dreams have helped shape the future of the European Union."

"I applaud the EPC for putting “the future of work” at the heart of the public debate. The digital revolution is one of the defining challenges of our time, with profound effects on our societies, our social systems and our citizens. I’m sure this issue paper will inspire national and European policymakers in their search for concrete solutions."

"Enjoyed presenting the new 'better regulation agenda' this afternoon at the European Policy Centre. Great questions from the audience, a cross-section of diplomats, NGOs, think tanks, officials, journalists – people who really know Brussels inside out."

"Themes in this report go at the heart of the priorities of the Finnish presidency. Social sustainability is key to the many transformations the EU is facing during the next decade. For evidence-based policymaking, reports like this are extremely valuable."

"I rarely have read such good quality, comprehensive and clear publication on Future of Work. I really congratulate the authors of this useful and constructive publication, 'Future of Work'."

"The European Policy Centre was the natural choice for me to set out my priorities for the new mandate in the field of taxation. Offering incisive analysis, an extensive network and impeccable organisation, the EPC is the key hub for stakeholder engagement in Brussels."
