"How Europe Wins" is not a ready-made answer – it is an invitation to rethink Europe's strategies and, at the same time, an urgent call to follow up ideas with action.
In a world where everyone else seems to be acting faster and more decisively, Europe faces fundamental questions: Is Europe currently on the road to victory? Can Europe still win on the decisive issues? If so, alone or with which partners? Does someone have to lose for Europe to win? What is Europe missing to be a born winner – and what do we already have? And what game is being played anyway?
The European Forum Alpbach 2026 will explore these questions – with voices from politics, science, business and culture, with young thinkers and experienced decision-makers. Because the invitation and call for answers and action is addressed to everyone. No one can afford to remain in the status quo.
