Abstract: Abstract Put very simply, the aim of any EU business association is to be heard, understood and (if possible) supported by the EU lawmakers. As more and more regulations and policies affecting business are defined and decided not at the national but at the EU level, the main tasks of these associations are to: promote and defend vis-à-vis the EU decision makers, the interests of the companies they represent make sure company priorities feature high on the EU agenda obtain early warning of EU initiatives affecting companies, inform members, help them define their collective views and ensure the EU lawmakers receive these in good time and take them as fully as possible into account.
