Following the Nice Summit the President of the Commission, Romano Prodi, and the Belgian Prime Minister, Guy Verhofstadt, invited a group of intellectuals to two brainstorming sessions to discuss the expectations, needs and functions of Brussels as capital of Europe. The final report summarises the main ideas and proposals resulting from those meetings. It aims to contribute to and inspire future decision-making.
