From Monday, 16 March to Tuesday, 17 March, AmCham EU hosted the Brussels Briefing, bringing together representatives from 23 AmChams across Europe to exchange views on the EU-US business outlook and ongoing policy developments shaping the transatlantic agenda. Under the theme ‘EU-US business outlook 2026: navigating change and opportunity’, the programme focused on how businesses can respond to evolving political dynamics, regulatory changes and economic priorities in Europe and the United States. Through sessions with speakers including Andrew Puzder, US Ambassador to the US, participants covered the Industrial Accelerator Act, competitiveness, digital policy and environmental regulation, while also providing insights into the political landscape within the EU institutions and the broader transatlantic relationship. The event offered a platform for dialogue, knowledge-sharing and strengthening cooperation across the AmCham network.
