SUMMARY:Official naming ceremony of the Benedetto da Norcia room
DESCRIPTION:On Tuesday\, the ECR Group will hold a ceremony in Strasbourg to officially name its meeting room WIC 200 after Benedetto da Norcia (Benedict of Nursia). The figure of Benedict was instrumental in shaping the European Renaissance and the development of western culture. His mission brought forth a new and brighter era for Europe. In fact\, the Benedictine monasteries became important centres for the education of young people and were instrumental for the rebirth of a linguistically\, ethnically and culturally united Europe. In the second half of the twentieth century\, as modern Europe was recovering from its own darkness\, the impetus to spiritual unity and order provided by Benedict made him an obvious choice as Patron Saint of all Europe. European Parliament President Roberta Metsola will attend the ceremony. Following the naming ceremony\, a conference “Roots that shape the future: Saint Benedict and the values that moulded Europe” will take place in the newly named room to reflect on the enduring relevance of the Benedictine tradition\, its contribution to European history and its connection to the fundamental values of Europe. \n\nOfficial naming ceremony: \nWhen: Tuesday @ 15:30 \nWhere: WIC 200 \nConference: \nWhen: Tuesday @ 16:00 \nWhere: WIC 200 \nAGENDA\n15:30: Official naming ceremony of the “Benedetto da Norcia” meeting room \n16:00: Conference \nROOTS THAT SHAPE THE FUTURE Saint Benedict and the values that molded Europe \nOpening remarks \n\nAntonella Sberna\, Vice-President of the European Parliament\nNicola Procaccini\, Co-Chair of the ECR Group in the European Parliament\nMarco Squarta\, Member of the ECR Group in the European Parliament\n\nThe Benedictine journey: three cities\, a single European heritage \n\nSpeeches by the Mayors of Norcia\, Subiaco and Cassino\n\nA father for Europe: Saint Benedict and the pursuit of Knowledge \n\nRod Dreher\, writer and editor (via video connection)\n\nEurope’s roots\, values and future \n\nBernardito Cleopas Auza\, Apostolic Nuncio to the European Union\nJeremias Schroder\, Abbot Primate of the Order of Saint Benedict\n\nModerator: Andrea Gagliarducci\, Vatican correspondent

SUMMARY:How can Europe lead in cloud and AI? Building policy\, power and trust.
DESCRIPTION:On Tuesday\, ECR MEP Diego Solier and Greens/EFA MEP Reinier Van Lanschot will host a policy-makers’ dinner in Strasbourg. \nRather than looking only at the ambition behind Europe’s digital strategy\, the discussion will focus on the practical conditions needed to deliver it – from investment\, permitting and energy to infrastructure deployment and AI capacity. Through this high-level exchange\, we hope to explore how Europe can translate its digital ambitions into concrete outcomes and strengthen its competitiveness\, resilience and strategic autonomy in cloud and AI. \nWhen: Tuesday @ 18:30 \nWhere: Member Salon S02\, European Parliament\, Strasbourg
