The Future of the European Single Market: Lectio Magistralis by Enrico Letta

Next Friday, October 25, at 11:00 AM, the Conference Room at Palazzo Soragna in Parma will host a significant event aimed at exploring the future prospects of the European Union: a lectio magistralis delivered by Enrico Letta, President of the Jacques Delors Institute. The meeting, aimed at students of the European College, will focus on the central theme “The Future of the European Single Market: Much More than a Market.”

The European Single Market, one of the fundamental pillars of European integration, allows for the free movement of goods, services, people, and capital among member states. However, in a rapidly changing global context, economic, social, and environmental challenges raise questions about the future of this instrument.

The choice of Enrico Letta as the speaker is no coincidence: his deep commitment to European integration and his political and academic experience make him a privileged observer of the dynamics influencing the Single Market. His talk promises to be an important opportunity for critical reflection and dialogue on how the Single Market can evolve to meet contemporary challenges.

At a time when global uncertainties are on the rise, the contributions of thinkers like Letta are crucial for guiding collective reflection on a project of integration that remains vital for the stability and prosperity of the continent.

All students and participants will have the opportunity to engage with a topic of extraordinary relevance, contributing to shaping an inclusive and sustainable European future.
