EuroCham Singapore, along with other European Business Organisations (EBOs) in the region, is pleased to announce an upcoming webinar focusing on the recent EU Elections and their potential impact on the Southeast Asia region and European companies operating in the region.

In this webinar, we will analyse the outcomes of the EU Elections and discuss how these results might influence EU policies that directly affect economic and political dynamics such as trade, investment and regulatory environments in Southeast Asia.

We will also highlight the names that have been communicated for the most senior positions at the European Commission, European Council, and the foreign policy service. Understanding who will be at the helm of these influential EU bodies is crucial for anticipating future policy directions and their implications for international relations and business operations.

We are honoured to have Mr Antoine Ripoll as our keynote speaker. With his extensive experience and insights, Mr Ripoll will provide an in-depth analysis of these developments and participate in a Q&A session to address any questions from the audience.

Join us for this informative session to gain valuable insights into the evolving political landscape of the EU and its broader implications.
