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 24 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 2023.

“The support from ECCP has been a tremendous help throughout, providing Penbrothers with opportunities to connect with global enterprises and provide them with remote teams in the Philippines to help them scale. As a member since 2018, the vast network that ECCP has given Penbrothers has allowed us to push boundaries and achieve our goals. Penbrothers is an organization that offers equal opportunities to foreign companies & Filipino talent. The ECCP has proven reliable and consistent, especially in this pandemic where it has never been so important to be able to give Filipinos access to jobs.“
“The ECCP has been providing a big help to our business during this global crisis because they have given us a lot of opportunities to learn through the many webinars they organize for their members. The advisory from the chamber is also helpful to keep us updated on all the initiatives by the organization to help businesses. It feels good that somebody is working for the business community. We appreciate the updates from the government and COVID-19 news from the chamber.“
“Strong connectivity. This is the driving force of both FedEx Express and the ECCP. We share a common vision – to provide robust and unparalleled connections in and out of Europe. Even during these times, we truly appreciate the ECCP for staying committed and dedicated as advocates of resilience. We highly value our membership with the ECCP because it allows us to stay connected to the European business community as we seek to understand how we can continue to support our fellow members to navigate during these challenging times through optimizing their supply chains.“
“We continue to support ECCP apart from being member for many years now, as it helps us to increase our visibility, generating referrals and leading to new opportunities. I am confident that ECCP is a great avenue for quality networking and Building a long term relationship. Let us not forget that most of the strongest friendships started from networking in the business world. ECCP keeps you informed and updated, regularly providing the latest information’s, like highlighting upcoming legal requirements or technological advancements.“
“It has been a productive, impactful and fun ride with ECCP the past 12 years. It was very challenging but productive to chair the ECCP Women in Business Committee. We made a mark by highlighting that women in business are more than ready to continue demanding more seats, space and voice at the table. The founding of Lobien Realty Group is my best personal example. The impact is noticeable by the growing number of participants in this Committee. ECCP and the WBC have become an avenue for women members to learn from each other, seek mentors and friends, network with other women business leaders.“
“Our partnership has always been one of our dependable avenues when it comes to expanding our network and fostering new partnerships, especially as a key player in a highly competitive and dynamic space. In the several initiatives we have been a part of, we have had profound and valuable experiences that helped shape how we do our business in MPower. As the paradigm on the energy industry continues to shift, we put more value in our involvement in ECCP’s dedicated Energy Committee as they continue to lead meaningful dialogues and pursue endeavors relevant to the changing landscape we are in.“
