European Business Association

The European Business Association was established in 1999 as a forum for discussion and resolution of problems facing the private sector in Ukraine. At present it brings together over 350 European companies, offering:

• Collective Advocacy of members' interests, also through the Association's committees;


• Regular Information Support on developments affecting business in Ukraine, seminars and speaking events;


• A voice in the EU policy-making process; through strong working links to the European Commission and the national EU embassies in Kyiv;


• Networking opportunities and social events – chances for the European business community to meet informally.

The EBA arose from the initiative of companies and organizations that saw advantages and benefits in the European business community in acting together.

The Association operates as an independent body responsible to its members.

It acts as a platform for information exchange and dialogue with Ukrainian authorities.

Being a non-profit Association of legal entities, the EBA sees its core mission as representing the interests of European and domestic investors in Ukraine, and improving the investment climate has been the EBA’s major concern since the moment it was founded.
