The third Berlin Conference marks the end of the first phase of work of 'A Soul for Europe'. From 2009 onwards the initiative, which since 2003 has given the European project a cultural dimension, will be launching new projects with strong European partners and an organisation involving more young people.

One of the main topics for discussion will be the cultural dimension and European basis of companies operating on a global scale.

Speakers and guests include the presidents of the European Commission, the European Parliament and the German Bundestag, José Manuel Barroso, Hans-Gert Pöttering and Norbert Lammert respectively, as well as representatives of several major business companies. For further information, visit
