Through its strong relationship with the government, the European Chamber of Commerce of the Philippines is able to support member companies by facilitating market access and working on the creation of a level playing field for both European and Filipino companies alike.
The ECCP's 24 sector committees convene to discuss cross-cutting and specific issues, listing key recommendations on actions needed to support market access for European businesses, and enable long-term economic welfare for the Philippines. Below are our advocacy wins in 2023.

“Having served as ECCP President and Vice President for more than 4 years, I have witnessed the tremendous growth of the Chamber for the last several years, as it waded through a great deal of uncertainty especially at the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic. Nevertheless, it continued to provide excellent service for its members. It then comes as no surprise that ECCP is often dubbed as the Chamber of Choice.“
“I appreciate how ECCP has continued providing many opportunities for professional growth and business development even as we work from home. The various committees are also valuable sources of information and the level of engagement has not diminished even in these challenging times.“
“During these challenging times, being a member of the ECCP has allowed Eastern Communications to connect with its members through each of our respective digital platforms. With the help of the ECCP, Eastern Communications was able to reach different industries and share insights on how to adapt to the ever-changing business landscape. Upgrading from entry-level membership to premium membership gave us access to more channels and more collaboration opportunities, which helped us effectively reach ECCP member companies and build strong connections.“
“Our clients look to us for expert advice on how to navigate complicated situations. We must foster a culture of curiosity within the company that allows us to look at multiple outcomes and help strategize for and with our clients. ECCP has helped us tremendously in supplementing our knowledge about critical industries and the disruptions happening within and around them. We trust ECCP to provide proactive content for the emerging ones that will shape the conversations of the future. I am positive that EON's synergy with ECCP will bring us closer to our shared goals and aspirations.“
“The ECCP has been providing a big help to our business during this global crisis because they have given us a lot of opportunities to learn through the many webinars they organize for their members. The advisory from the chamber is also helpful to keep us updated on all the initiatives by the organization to help businesses. It feels good that somebody is working for the business community. We appreciate the updates from the government and COVID-19 news from the chamber.“
“The ECCP has been instrumental in helping us cope with challenges during this pandemic, especially at the height of ECQ. Through its webinars, which were even offered for free to its members, it has provided us avenues to collaborate with each other, share our points of views and collective sentiments, and communicate and negotiate with relevant government stakeholders to find workable and mutually beneficial solutions for most of our pressing concerns. At a time when the world is suddenly hit by an unforeseen adversary, nothing beats collective efforts and the ECCP made this happen!“
