European Competitiveness Workshop

On the 2nd of October from 15:00 to 16:30, the British Chamber of Commerce | EU & Belgium is organising a workshop for the European Competitiveness pillar of our European Economic Security and Competitiveness Programme. 

The workshop will explore how both the EU and the UK, facing similar challenges in productivity, innovation, and economic resilience, can leverage bilateral cooperation to boost their position on the world stage. This session will focus on identifying concrete policy measures to improve competitiveness across Europe, drawing from the EU’s Competitiveness Compass and the UK’s Industrial Strategy. 

This interactive session will also consider how closer regulatory alignment and stronger trade ties between the EU and UK can support sustainable growth, investment, and innovation. The outcomes of the recent EU–UK Summit provide an important political backdrop for this discussion and a starting point for translating political momentum into practical action.
