The EU Industry Days are Europe’s flagship annual event focusing on key industrial policy discussions, connecting industrial frontrunners, and boosting the knowledge base of European industry.
The 2025 edition of the EU Industry Days took place on 5-6 June 2025 in Rzeszów, Poland, with the support of the Polish Presidency of the Council of the European Union. It was one of the flagship events of the Polish Presidency of the Council of the EU.
Beyond the main programme, the event featured several parallel sessions, an exhibition to showcase EU innovation, and a meet-the-experts corner where participants were able to get tailored information on EU initiatives to support industry.
