Welcome to the GS1 in Europe Regional Forum!

The Regional Forum has a crucial role in addressing regional challenges and promoting collaboration among the 49 Member Organisations of GS1 in Europe. It serves as a platform for tackling pressing issues and fostering a spirit of cooperation within the European GS1 community.

The event’s program is currently being developed based on four guiding principles:

  1. Interactive sessions: The four-day program will not only focus on GS1 in Europe projects and activities but also cater to the needs of GS1 MOs in better supporting their member companies.
  2. Innovation and creativity: We encourage a culture of innovation, creativity, and trend analysis by inviting GS1 MOs to share their ideas and solutions.
  3. Collaboration and knowledge sharing: We aim to enhance communication and collaboration across the 49 EU MOs, fostering an environment of cooperation and mutual learning.
  4. Networking and relationship-building: We will strengthen a sense of community and teamwork, enabling participants to establish valuable connections and strengthen relationships.

By adhering to these principles, the GS1 in Europe Regional Forum in Athens promises to be an exciting and fruitful event. Attendees will have the opportunity to engage in interactive sessions, explore innovative ideas, collaborate with industry peers, share knowledge, and build lasting relationships. Join us as we shape the future of GS1 standards and initiatives in Europe.
