    Complementary Information

    Please note that The Club of Rome is a membership organisation, constituting a network of over 100 members from around the world. Not all are active for the Club on a regular basis. The budget estimate for activities included under this register therefore relates to the working time and activities/projects of the Co-President and Secretariat, rather than the entirety of the Club's membership.

    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.
