Representatives of Bulgarian business took part in the 7-hour-session of the European Parliament of Enterprises on 13 October in Brussels.
“The time has come for businesses to reiterate their capacity and willingness to provide solutions to the challenges of today: globalisation, unemployment, unfair competition, migration and climate change.” With these words EUROCHAMBRES‘ Chairman Richard Weber inaugurated the fourth edition of the European Parliament of Enterprises, gathering more than 700 entrepreneurs in the Hemicycle of the European Parliament in Brussels.
During the subsequent debates and votes on trade, the single market, sustainability and skills, companies called for EU policies allowing them to contribute addressing these challenges while being able to compete globally.
High-level institutional representatives – including European Parliament Vice-President Antonio Tajani, European Commission Vice-President Jyrki Katainen and Ivan Korčok State Secretary of Slovakia – engaged with the entrepreneurs and acknowledged their demands for a more business-friendly policy environment.
