Transatlantic Week 2026

Monday, July 20, 2026, to Wednesday, July 22, 2026

Since its debut in 2010, Transatlantic Week has become the Transatlantic Policy Network’s signature event, bringing together legislators, senior officials, business leaders, and representatives of civil society to consider the strategic issues that shape the transatlantic partnership.

The 2026 edition takes place at a time of considerable geopolitical, economic, and technological change. These developments underscore the importance of sustained dialogue and coordinated action between the transatlantic partners.

Following the publication at Transatlantic Week 2025 of Transatlantic Vision 2030: Strengthening EU-US Partnership,” TPN continues its work to promote a forward-looking agenda grounded in shared democratic values, economic resilience, and a commitment to innovation.

Transatlantic Week 2026 will provide an opportunity for policymakers, the business community, and civil society to examine key challenges and contribute to the development of a stronger, more coherent transatlantic framework. For the most current draft programme, click here.

Building tomorrow’s partnerships today.

Launched to promote the closest possible partnership between the Governments and the peoples of the European Union and the United States, the Transatlantic Policy Network (TPN) has a proud record of achievement as well as vital ambitions for the future.

From a small original base of support in the European Parliament and the US Congress, TPN has grown into a broadly based multi-party group of EU and US politicians, corporate leaders, think tanks, civil society stakeholders, and academics. Through regular informal dialogue and the maintenance of close personal relationships, TPN participants keep the two administrations focused on the indispensable goal of a strengthened Transatlantic Partnership.

Concentrating on the present while thinking about the future, TPN’s meetings and publications have outlined strategies for establishing the Transatlantic Partnership to be in a position to help set the rules for the global economy in the 21st century.

Looking at long-term trends to define the Partnership’s priorities ahead, TPN helps frame the debate on how governments should anticipate challenges, assess risks, and adopt the necessary policies to sustain global economic and political stability.
