Over the past year, AmCham EU has had the pleasure of introducing future policy and business leaders to the dynamic work of a trade association. Students from various American and European universities including the College of Europe, Utrecht University, 24ore Business School, University of Ghent, University of California, Lehigh University, and the Wharton-Lauder Institute Global Program had the opportunity to learn about the work of AmCham EU from our expert staff. The briefings are part of our ongoing work to support the next generation of global leaders, an effort we are especially proud of during the European Year of Youth.

The EU proposed the Foreign Subsidies Regulation (FSR) in 2021 to address foreign subsidies distorting the Single Market.

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.
