Celebrating International Women’s Day!
At the British Chamber we Embrace Equity on International Women’s Day!
The celebration of the International Women’s Day is an opportunity to reflect on the many aspects of gender inequality, especially those fostered by the digital divide. We therefore welcome the theme of the 67th session of the UN Commission on the Status of Women, and all national and international initiatives similarly aimed at the technological progress towards gender equality.
Statement on the Northern Ireland Protocol ‘Winsdor Framework’
BritCham strongly welcomes the news of the agreement that the United Kingdom and the European Union have just reached today. We hope that this positive development in cross-Channel relations will pave the way for stronger collaboration between the UK and the EU in trade and other key issues of mutual concern.

What they say
The UK and the EU are important markets for the BMW Group, but also free and seamless EU-UK trade is essential for our highly interconnected production plants on both sides of the channel. The green and digital transition of businesses will bring new challenges for EU-UK trade and customs. We believe that the British Chamber of Commerce (EU&Belgium) with its broad network and engagements will contribute to sort out these challenges, to find appropriate solutions and to maintain a prosperous EU-UK trade relationship for their members.
As a global technology company, IBM advocates for open digital trade, interoperability of technologies, and global standards. Through our membership with BritCham, we are able to more effectively contribute to policies that work both for the EU and British organisations and citizens. Considering IBM’s historical presence and continued investments in the UK, we are grateful BritCham facilitates these important collaborations.
Being a member of the British Chamber provides us with an excellent opportunity for exchange of information amongst the industry as well as between industry and Brussels based European Union institutions (such as EU COM, EU Parliament)
SD Worx and BritCham have a close and beneficial relationship, having worked together for some time now on a variety of projects, including the publication of a joint paper on Belgium Employer-Employee issues for British businesses from January 2021. We believe that BritCham is the key organisation that can act as a bridge for British companies that want to enter Belgian and European markets.
The UK is an important market for Siemens and the British Chamber of Commerce (EU&Belgium) is a very valuable platform for connecting with peers on a number of relevant topics for Siemens businesses, both in the EU and in the UK. We welcome the Chamber’s broad network and the engagements and exchanges on policy issues and other relevant topics as well as the practical advice the Chamber provides to its members.
We have partnered with The British Chamber on many occasions to connect and engage with their strong network, helping us to bridge the gap between business and education.
The British Chamber helps us to position our services in their broad network of key people and companies, both in Belgium and in the UK. It is also a powerful platform for connections with peers on various issues that matter to business today and tomorrow.
