    Goals / Remit

    Initiated in 1997, the European Chamber of Commerce in Hong Kong (ECC) is a non-governmental business interest group. The ECC is a ‘Chamber of Chambers’ with its membership comprising 15 European Chambers based in Hong Kong and 1 in Macau. The appointed representatives of these chambers make up the ECC board of directors.

    The ECC’s key objectives are to:

    Provide a channel of communication within European chambers in Hong Kong and economical circles.
    Promote commercial, industrial, financial, scientific and other economic exchanges of all types between Hong Kong and the European Union.
    Identify the problems that European companies may encounter in their development within Hong Kong and their extended Mainland Chinese market.
    Host functions that allow members to discuss and network with Hong Kong and European officials.

    Main EU files targeted

    The ECCHK has industry councils which produces Position Papers to relevant stakeholders in Hong Kong and Brussels for the purpose of keeping them up to date on the latest developments.

    The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.

    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.
