The annual event offers the opportunity for representatives of the EU institutions, Member States, the beekeeping sector, farmers, NGOs, the scientific community, and industry from fields related to bees and biodiversity to exchange views and discuss challenges and formulate recommendations to be addressed to policy makers.
