Mission & Goals
We represent Europe’s technology industries: 770,000 innovative companies in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, electronics, ICT & metal technology branches. They represent EU’s largest manufacturing sector, with annual turnover of €2,755 billion and one-third of all European exports and providing 11.6 million direct jobs. Founded in 1954, with hundreds of industry experts engaging across a broad range of policy areas, we are recognised as the foremost voice of Europe’s technology industries in Brussels. Our advocacy work addresses the broad spectrum of policy and regulatory issues that impact our companies, while our Partnership services provide support to a broader network of clients in the field. Committed to shaping a future that’s good: working with policymakers & stakeholders to strengthen industries’ growth/global leadership, maximise contribution to economy and society, foster a new relationship of trust between businesses and citizens.
