The Conference, a major event during the Polish Presidency, will attract approximately 900 top-level stakeholders from around the world: government leaders and officials from national, regional and local levels, industry representatives, civil society and experts.
The Conference will discuss the key issues related to the development and take-up of eGovernment services in Europe, with the view to implement the Malmö Ministerial Declaration 2009, the Digital Agenda for Europe and the eGovernment Action Plan 2011-2015. It will address the following political priorities:

• Policy Issues related to the development of eGovernment services, including social and economic ones.
• Interoperability Strategies to achieve wide availability of eGovernment services in the Member States for all EU citizens and enterprises.
• People's Concerns for challenging issues like the impact of eGovernment services, inclusiveness, public value, user empowerment and quality assurance.

In addition to the Conference, an Exhibition will be organised which will showcase the most recent European developments in the field of eGovernment – both at national and European level. Each Member State will demonstrate up to three cases according to its own priorities and approaches to eGovernment. The exhibition stand of the European Commission will host the successful so-called Large Scale Pilot Projects which play a very important role in the implementation of cross border services in Europe. They have already demonstrated concrete benefits for citizens, businesses and governments in Europe in areas such as eProcurement, eIdentification, eJustice, mobility of citizens and businesses, etc.
