    Communication activities

    PwC actively engages in communication activities to bring relevant PwC studies and surveys to the attention of EU policymakers. We regularly host events in Brussels, featuring distinguished guests such as Commissioner McGuinness, Commissioner Schmit, and former Prime Minister Enrico Letta, to facilitate dialogue on key policy issues such as on skills, labour market, EU competitiveness and taxation for growth. As a signatory of the Pact for Skills, we are also committed to enhancing skills development and fostering a competitive and resilient workforce within the EU. Through these initiatives, PwC aims to contribute to the ongoing policy conversation.

    Meetings

    37 meetings found. Download meetings

    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.
