First-hand insider information

On the one hand, the EU Commission is passing complex legislation that places unprecedented demands on the safety and sustainability of products and requires companies to behave with integrity in many respects. On the other hand, it has set itself the task of reducing the administrative burden on SMEs by 35% by 2029, thus following a "compass for competitiveness". All this is happening at a time when marketplaces from third countries are making a massive push into the European market and ignoring almost all requirements for safe and sustainable products. As a VERE member, you have the unique opportunity this year to obtain first-hand insider information and connect with high-profile speakers from authorities and affected companies at the 9th VERE e.V. panel event on 9 September 2026 at the Mövenpick Hotel Hamburg/Germany, free of charge. There are 150 spots available. The event will be simultaneously interpreted into English. The definitive programme is currently being finalised. Secure your place now! Please have your VERE membership number ready to access the registration form.
