ABOUT US

We bridge markets and create opportunities for European and Philippine businesses.

Founded in 1978, the European Chamber of Commerce of the Philippines (ECCP) is a multilateral chamber with close to 900 members and a strong presence across key regions in the Philippines. We advocate for fair and forward-looking economic policies, support market access through expert business consultancy and human capital development, and connect members to a dynamic network of stakeholders locally and abroad to drive growth and foster collaboration across sectors.

OUR POLICY AND ADVOCACY WORK

We shape policies and advocate for reforms that enable fair, sustainable, and competitive markets.

Through regular dialogues with government agencies and the release of timely position papers and whitebooks, we influence key policies and reforms that enhance the ease of doing business and drive regulatory improvements. The Chamber’s 24 sector committees, led by private sector leaders, provide a platform for members to collaborate, address industry-specific challenges, and ensure that the voice of the European-Philippine business community is heard in decisions shaping the economic landscape.

TESTIMONIALS

What our Members have to say.

Patricia Bunye

Cruz Marcelo & Tenefrancia

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.

Hany Constantin

Constant Integrated Project Development (CIPD)

I was pleasantly surprised by the speed and effectiveness of the ECCP to adapt and turn the difficulties of the pandemic into an opportunity. The variety of subjects and quality of presenters that came to share their experience in multiple webinars were a source of valuable information and guidance; the subjects and speakers consistently exceeded my expectations that I made a point to attend as many webinars as my schedule allowed. ECCP’s wide reach and professional offerings makes it a valuable partner to any Filipino business in these challenging times we live in.

Michael Kurt Raeuber

Royal Cargo, Inc.

We have been with the ECCP for almost 20 years, given the ECCP's professional approach to commercial and political matters. The ECCP has unmatched reach, historically-developed relationships, and experience. Upgrading to a premium membership is an investment into the ECCP’s advocacy prowess and assurance to be heard by the government, due to the ECCP’s well-developed relationships. Our membership facilitated joint advocacies shared and expanded not only through the ECCP, Integrity Initiative, and JFC, but other European chambers as well, opening doors to harvesting opportunities in differentiating our services.

Lilibet Amatong

Publicus Asia, Inc.

We pride ourselves in claiming Publicus Asia, Inc. as the first, and probably still is the only registered lobbying firm in the Philippines. We need to be always abreast with issues and national policy directions. ECCP provides a venue to elevate economic and political discourses clinically. ECCP is not only responsive, but even anticipates its membership’s needs. Most importantly, ECCP offers a respite that maintains a steady flow of positive energies that is easily contagious --a much-needed reserve to keep us on course to recovery and be confident in meeting new realities.

Atty. Alberto Jesus T. Muyot

Save The Children Philippines Inc.

Save the Children Philippines is honored to partner with the ECCP, an organization that shares our vision of creating lasting change for children. We sincerely thank the ECCP for its vital role and contribution to our fundraising initiatives and emergency responses, as well as for allowing us to use its platforms to amplify our calls for support. As a business leader, the ECCP’s vast network and influence can help us reach many children who need help. With the continued support of the ECCP, we can do more to fulfill the rights of every child and make this world a better place for children.

Dr. Elizabeth Quirino-Lahoz

Technological Institute of the Philippines

We are grateful that T.I.P is a member of the ECCP because of the value-adding sharing from the ECCP webinars. The webinars have provided critical and vital information needed by an institution to survive this pandemic and still remain strong after. The learnings have made us better equipped to perform reengineered duties in this new normal.T.I.P. shall continue to be an active partner of ECCP. We look forward to more engagements with the organization, especially towards more networking and partnership opportunities with its nearly 800 members.
