Building trust and partnerships in the EU
On Thursday, 13 October, Stefano Marmo, Senior Policy Manager, AmCham EU, joined AmCham Ukraine to share how business professionals and policymakers can form long-lasting, productive partnerships. Alongside Tetyana Prokopchuk, Vice-President of Policy, AmCham Ukraine, Stefano demonstrated how the AmChams in Europe (ACE) network coordinates to communicate the importance of the transatlantic economy in both Europe and the US.
The pandemic and the war in Ukraine, they explained, have only served to bolster solidarity and coordination in the ACE network. Encouraging transatlantic, and international, cooperation on key issues, like the twin transition, supply chains, trade and energy prices are more important than ever. AmCham EU and the ACE network continue to stand with Ukraine, recognising the role of the private sector in present and future humanitarian and rebuilding efforts.

Preventing FFCs from distorting the Single Market is an important goal – and one that must be achieved without creating its own disruptions.

Discussing competitiveness in the agri-food sector in Barcelona
At the Alimentaria Conference in Barcelona, Edouard Coppieters, Senior Policy Adviser, AmCham EU, spoke about placing competitiveness at the centre of the European agri-food ecosystem. Taking place on Tuesday, 24 March, he outlined the role of simplification and Better Regulation principles in ensuring a stable agri-food supply chain and supporting the sector’s competitiveness. He noted that the sector operates within an international trade environment and that stakeholders across the value chain face challenges in adapting to the current legislative framework. He emphasised the need to simplify operations within the Single Market and ensure that legislation is fit for purpose rather than a box-ticking exercise. Aurélie Dufour, Europe Sustainability Engagement and Regulation Lead, Yum! Brands and Dirk Jacobs, Director-General, FoodDrinkEurope also joined the panel.
