The secretary general of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Romania (CCIR), Ovidiu Silaghi, participated on June 12 in the 135th General Assembly of the Association of European Chambers of Commerce and Industry (Eurochambres), according to a press release sent to AGERPRES on Friday.
According to the cited source, by attending this event, CCIR continues to play an active role in the activities of European chambers of commerce organisations, focusing in particular on the most pressing economic issues affecting business communities in Europe, such as improving dialogue between the EU and the US.
CCIR secretary general Ovidiu Silaghi emphasised the importance of the organisation's participation in European decision-making processes.
"CCIR is actively involved in strengthening the influence of the European business community on improving the decision-making mechanisms of European institutions. We are in favour of increasing cohesion within the EU and reducing centrifugal movements towards the dissolution of the community. CCIR also wishes to become an active partner for national authorities once again, as the main vector for promoting the interests of the business community in Romania, with the aim of identifying realistic solutions for reducing the country's financial deficits," said Ovidiu Silaghi.
Currently, Eurochambres represents over 20 million businesses in Europe through its 45 members (43 national chambers of commerce and industry and two transnational chambers) and a European network of 1,700 local and regional chambers. Over 93% of the businesses represented are SMEs.
