As a committed bridge-builder and trusted partner, AmCham EU is bringing the EU and US even closer in our weekly members-only online fireside chat series called American Hour. On Thursday, 16 April, we welcomed David De Falco, Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Europe and Eurasia, US Department of Commerce during our American Hour members-only session. Mr De Falco discussed the latest developments on the transatlantic trade agenda with our members.
During the chat, Susan Danger, CEO, AmCham EU provided opening remarks and noted that: 'As like-minded powers, the business community counts on the EU and the US to work together, with the international community, in the fight against COVID-19. Now is the time to demonstrate the values we share in Europe, across the Atlantic and with the rest of the global community.'
Thank you Taggart Davis (JP Morgan), Chair of the Transatlantic Task Force for moderating the discussion.

From Tuesday, 16 to Wednesday, 17 June, AmCham EU travelled to the European Parliament in Strasbourg, France for a series of meetings on EU trade and external affairs policy developments. The delegation engaged with Members of the European Parliament and political group advisers to share business perspectives on the future of the EU-US relationship. Discussions focused on the need to reset transatlantic trade and investment ties, strengthen Europe’s competitiveness and preserve open, rules-based markets. Members also highlighted the importance of avoiding tariffs, reducing regulatory complexity, deepening cooperation on economic security, critical supply chains and digital policy as well as ensuring that resilience measures remain proportionate, predictable and open to trusted partners.
