Clarity
Vienna City Hall, Austria,
October 6 – 7, 2026
The Political Communication Summit is where Europe’s leading voices in political messaging, public affairs, and institutional communications come together. The rules are being rewritten - by new players, new platforms, and new behavioural insights. Be part of the conversation that will define how Europe communicates next. From campaigns to advocacy. From transparency to digital mobilisation.
The Political Communication Summit is powered by Partisan, the team behind the Political Tech Summit, which has brought together hundreds of political professionals, policymakers, and innovators to explore the future of political technology.
The Political Communication Summit is honoured to be held under the patronage of Bettina Emmerling, Deputy Mayor of the City of Vienna.
