EU Transparency Register

Goals / Remit
The Coalition of European organisations on Data Protection gives voice to concerns that European companies and organisations have with respect to the draft General Data Protection Regulation, since some of its provisions may severely hinder EU industrial operations on the global market with negative effects for competitiveness.
The Coalition is made up of 20 European organisations, from SMEs to global multinationals and non-profit organisations operating in a variety of sectors, on national, regional and global scale. With an aggregated turnover of over € 120 billion and some 607,000 employees worldwide, our footprint allows us to bring growth, progress and jobs to the EU’s economy.
The Coalition members are:
- ABB
- Atlas Copco
- Barncancerfonden
- Electrolux
- Ericsson
- Husqvarna
- Investor
- Jajja Communications
- Klarna
- Nokia
- Sandvik
- SAP SE

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.
