Rory joined AmCham EU in 1998 and was firstly engaged in the Financial Services committee and later, when he joined Nike, he became even more active in the organization. His roles at AmCham EU included Member-at-Large of Policy Group, Vice-Chair of the Trade Committee and Chair of the Presidency Group, where he lead numerous high-level delegations to Member State capitals with groups of senior members. Rory left Brussels for London in 2011 when he joined The Carlyle Group becoming Managing Director, but he stayed a loyal, active and supportive member of AmCham EU until the present time. Before joining Nike he also worked at Cosmetics Europe and L’Oreal. He was also an active member of other associations in Brussels.
We are very appreciative of Rory’s collegiality and commitment over the years as well as his friendship, sparkling sense of humour and his true kindness. On behalf of the staff, members and Board of AmCham EU, both past and present, we would like to extend our deepest condolences to his husband Koenraad and to his extensive family and loved ones around the world.
