    Communication activities

    “Television Now and Beyond” is a new event series from Sky Italia, developed to present various aspects of the media business to a select group of high-level influencers in Brussels. Housed in the Bibliotheque Solvay, the event series will bring together a VIP-only audience and leading names in the media business to discuss issues from social media and entertainment to news broadcasting and creation of original content.
    Sky Italia is also up to host CSR events in Brussels.

    Meetings

    2 meetings found. Download meetings

    The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.

    1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
