⚡ Flash Analysis ⚡ | Mental Health at Work: Closing the Gaps On World Mental Health Day, it's important to address the disparities in mental health initiatives across EU member states. While countries like Denmark are leading with campaigns like "Fighting Stigma at Work: ONE OF US", others face challenges like limited funding and resources. These gaps highlight the need for coordinated efforts to ensure all citizens have access to adequate mental health care at work. The new European Commission has acknowledged mental health in its political guidelines, but with responsibilities spread across different portfolios, effective collaboration is essential to make a meaningful impact.

📢 Policy Dialogue | Europe's Hidden Champions: Unlocking the Potential of Mid-Caps for Competitiveness and Security On Wednesday, 16 October 2024, we are hosting a Policy Dialogue to explore the vital role of mid-cap companies in Europe's industrial ecosystems.

Our panel includes Bonifacio García Porras (Head of European Commission Growth's SME unit), David Cousquer (CEO and founder of Trendeo), Holger Kunze (Director of the European Office, German Engineering Federation - VDMA), Krista De Spiegeleer (Policy Officer, Small Mid-Caps, European Commission, DG GROW), and Sylvie Bernard-Grandjean (Chairwoman of REDEX Group, Vice-President of METI - Mouvement des Entreprises de Taille Intermédiaire).

⚡ Flash Analysis ⚡ | EU Tariffs on Chinese EVs: A Step Towards Unity or More Division? On October 4, the EU took a major step by voting to impose tariffs on Chinese-made electric vehicles for the next five years. While this marks a significant move in EU-China trade relations, the vote also reveals the fragility of European unity, as the majority of member states abstained from voting. With countries like France strongly supporting the tariffs and Germany voicing concerns, it’s clear that national interestsare playing a major role in shaping the EU’s trade policies. This vote sets a critical precedent for future EU decisions on key industries. Discover the full analysis by Elixabete Arrieta 👉 https://lnkd.in/etshFWQw #EUTariffs #TradePolicy #China #EU #EV
