On Tuesday, October 2nd, 2024, we held our October Monthly Meeting regarding "Poland's EU Presidency and the U.S. Presidential Election", which was attended by over 120 AmCham members.
Our guests were Magdalena Sobkowiak, Undersecretary of State, European Union Affairs Division at the Chancellery of the Prime Minister of Poland; Susan Danger, CEO of the American Chamber of Commerce to the European Union (AmCham EU), and Paul Jones, former U.S. Ambassador to Poland, currently an International Affairs Advisor in Squire Patton Boggs Public Policy practice. The discussion was moderate by Tony Housh, AmCham Chairman.
During our meeting we talked about the importance of the Polish Presidency of the EU Council and the opportunities it poses for our country and the region. We delved into the issue of Europe’s economy, security, and attractiveness. Our guests also underlined the implications of changes in the EU and U.S. politics, especially the U.S. presidential elections, for American investors in Poland. Subsequently, we touched upon the topic of how the elections in the States will influence safety of our country, our foreign policy, and transatlantic economic ties.
Thank you to all the participants of the meeting - we truly enjoyed seeing so many of you!
