Representation of Interests at the EU Level

Eurochambres unites the European perspectives of business and brings them to where the course for Europe's competitiveness is set. The association actively accompanies EU legislative processes and advocates to the Commission, Parliament, and Council for practical regulations: ensuring a functioning single market, competitive framework conditions for business, and SME-friendly rules. As a common platform, Eurochambres also strengthens cross-border cooperation among chambers – including within the framework of EU-funded projects. You can find Eurochambres' positions here.
