Charlemagne Prize Forum on Europe

Conference

A platform for Europe's future

Convinced that Europe needs a platform in these times of great change to discuss its future role in the world, the further process of European integration and the political, economic and social issues that this entails, the Charlemagne Prize Forum on Europe was established in Aachen in recent years.

The aim of the Charlemagne Prize Forum on Europe is to complement and promote the high reputation enjoyed by the International Charlemagne Prize of Aachen at European level by hosting a high-level conference attended by international decision-makers from politics, business and society, and to contribute to international understanding and to the promotion and deepening of the European integration process.

The conference takes place on the Wednesday before Ascension Day. From 2006 to 2009, the Forum was organised by the Charlemagne Prize Foundation and the City of Aachen in cooperation with Deutsche Telekom AG. From 2010 to 2025, the National Association of German Cooperative Banks (BVR) co-organised the Forum.
