    Complementary Information

    Wir haben in Brüssel einen Mitarbeiter, der 100 Prozent auf EU-Ebene arbeitet. Die Kolleginnen und Kollegen am Berliner Sitz des Verbandes verfolgen von dort aus zum Teil ebenfalls EU-Themen und arbeiten unserem Brüsseler Büro zu. Die in Deutschland ansässigen Mitarbeiter und in Einzelfällen auch Mitglieder des Verbandes nehmen anlassbezogen teilweise auch an Sitzungen in Brüssel teil, was aber die Ausnahme darstellt.

    Meetings

    6 meetings found. Download meetings

    The list below covers meetings with Commissioners/Cabinet members/Directors-general (high-level) Commission meetings published December 2014 to December 2024, and the meetings of Commissioners/Cabinet members/Directors-general and officials holding "management functions" in the Commission published since 1 January 2025. Other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may well have taken place, but the Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. All information below comes from the Commission and not from the registrant.

    1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
