THE European Chamber of Commerce of the Philippines (ECCP) said its upcoming European-Philippine Business Summit on Oct. 24 hopes to highlight the process of making the business environment friendlier to European firms interested in investing in the Philippines.
“We will also delve on the economic performance of the country in recent years and how European-Philippine trade and investments have played a significant role in economic development,” ECCP president and CEO of Republic Cement Services, Inc. Nabil Francis said in a statement.
The chamber said the summit hopes to highlight business opportunities and policy recommendations for human capital development, health care, infrastructure and transportation, energy and the environment.
The ECCP said it will also release its 2019 Advocacy Papers which include policy recommendations to help level the playing field and improve ease of doing business.
Invited guests from the government include Labor Secretary Silvestre H. Bello III, Transportation Secretary Arthur P. Tugade, and Environment Secretary Roy A. Cimatu.
