Good evening,
 
We had a closer look at the EVP’s agenda and tried to reshuffle her agenda to accommodate your suggested time slots but to no avail. The 18:00 time slot
might be too risky as the EVP will need to be whisked back to the Berlaymont by car and might end up being stuck in traffic during peak hour. Not the most
ideal situation all the more since she has to be at a social function at 19:00.
 
We can nevertheless suggest a meeting between 12 00-12:45. Grateful if you could check whether this would also be feasible on your side.
 
Kind regards,

Following your meeting request sent on behalf of

Dear Werner,
 
Thank you for this important question
 
We'd suggest a discussion on the ongoing and upcoming digital regulation files (DSA/DMA, Data Act, AI liability/PLD) as well
as the competition matters  This would be in line with what they agreed to discuss during the previous call in November, but
of course we are open to any topics you'd suggest  
would be happy to discuss this agenda with you beforehand, if
possible
 
Hope this helps, and please let me know if you have any other questions
 
Thanks

Dear 
 
While we are trying to find an answer to your main question, it would be helpful to know whether 
 has any
particular “digital topics” in mind that we would like to discuss as a matter of priority?
 
Many thanks in advance

Dear Christiane and Werner,
 
I hope you are both well.
 
I’m reaching out to request a meeting between Executive Vice-President Vestager and 
 Google
and Alphabet. 
 will be traveling to Europe this spring and would be delighted to reconnect in person with EVP
Vestager to discuss the digital policy topics of common interest on 29 or 30 March in Brussels. 
 
Could you please help us check the interest and availability of EVP Vestager on these dates?
 
In parallel – and as a potential preparation for that meeting – 
would be
keen to connect with you virtually to continue the discussion on DSA/DMA. Given the pace of the trilogue negotiations,
would be happy to meet at your earliest convenience. We would gladly accommodate your busy schedule - and if
helpful, we could also suggest some slots that work for 
(ideally after 5pm CET).
 
Thank you in advance for considering these two requests.
 
With best regards,
