Through its strong relationship with the government, the European Chamber of Commerce of the Philippines is able to support member companies by facilitating market access and working on the creation of a level playing field for both European and Filipino companies alike.
The ECCP's 23 sector committees convene to discuss cross-cutting and specific issues, listing key recommendations on actions needed to support market access for European businesses, and enable long-term economic welfare for the Philippines. Below are our advocacy wins in 2021.

“ECCP continues to be an influential and valuable partner over the years. Through the different advocacies of the association, member companies can take part in policymaking that contributes to the overall improvement of the business sector and the economy. Amidst the current national emergency, ECCP has supported us by providing relevant information through its Viber group. Thus, we were able to get our IATF IDs early in the ECQ that helped us continue our operations as an essential sector.“
“Our clients look to us for expert advice on how to navigate complicated situations. We must foster a culture of curiosity within the company that allows us to look at multiple outcomes and help strategize for and with our clients. ECCP has helped us tremendously in supplementing our knowledge about critical industries and the disruptions happening within and around them. We trust ECCP to provide proactive content for the emerging ones that will shape the conversations of the future. I am positive that EON's synergy with ECCP will bring us closer to our shared goals and aspirations.“
“I was pleasantly surprised by the speed and effectiveness of the ECCP to adapt and turn the difficulties of the pandemic into an opportunity. The variety of subjects and quality of presenters that came to share their experience in multiple webinars were a source of valuable information and guidance; the subjects and speakers consistently exceeded my expectations that I made a point to attend as many webinars as my schedule allowed. ECCP’s wide reach and professional offerings makes it a valuable partner to any Filipino business in these challenging times we live in.“
“The ECCP prioritized a holistic approach in developing its local and international community in this time of uncertainty. They swiftly transitioned their physical services and programs that aim to strengthen business relationships virtually; this includes access to the latest news, insights from leaders in the field, joint foreign chambers, and research that is instrumental in improving people’s lives. Joining ECCP has been paramount to our organizational success. We highly recommend an ECCP membership for anyone who is committed to building long-lasting business relationships across the globe.“

It has been a fruitful journey that has strengthened our stand in the Philippine and European business community. We truly appreciate their commitment to keep their members engaged during this difficult time. ECCP has always been a provider of good business support and we are looking forward to more years with them.“
