EU-Türkiye

EU-Türkiye Business Summit 2025

17 November

Egmont Palace, Brussels

This summit brings together leading voices from business, government, and civil society to explore how both sides can align on pressing priorities: updating the Customs Union, accelerating green and digital transitions, and building more resilient, diversified supply chains. The conversations will go beyond commerce, tackling the role of innovation, governance, and strategic diplomacy in forging a more connected and capable partnership.

Anchored in a relationship that dates back to the 1963 Association Agreement and strengthened by the 1995 Customs Union, EU-Türkiye economic ties have long been a cornerstone of regional cooperation. Today, with bilateral trade reaching record levels and Türkiye standing as the EU’s 5th largest trade partner, the time is ripe for a bold reimagining of this strategic alliance.

Our mission statement

Our mission is twofold: we aim to bring politics and business together in order to provide them with an opportunity to debate and pursue their common goals, giving a voice to all sides of the debate. The other priority of EBS is to provide European institutions with a platform where they can place their top priorities in the spotlight and advance the development of new pieces of legislation through discussion with a variety of actors and stakeholders.
