A Watershed Agreement with Far Reaching Implications
Join the BABC and other European Business organizations for a high level round table discussion about the Transatlantic Trade & Investment Partnership (TTIP). This seminar will provide a general overview of this groundbreaking agreement, focusing on the relationship between the EU and the US and how a TTIP could benefit both markets and specific industry groups by reducing trade barriers for goods, services, investment and public procurement. Panelists will also discuss the strategic opportunity presented by a TTIP agreement and how the removal of non-tariff barriers and the compatibility of regulations and standards on both continents could benefit various industry and service sectors. Hotly debated issues within the TTIP negotiations, such as transparency and privacy and data protection will also be covered.
