Members of the European Parliament and members of national parliaments from the 27 Member States met in Brussels on 5-6 February 2007 to discuss the future of the Lisbon Strategy. The original aim of making the EU into the world's most competitive and dynamic economy by 2010 was adopted by the Lisbon summit in 2000. Results at the halfway stage were disappointing and the strategy was refocused and relaunched at the March 2005 spring summit.
