Positions
13 Feb 2024

AIM co- signs a joint statement from the Single Market Coalition that calls for urgent action to strengthen the EU’s Single Market in response to current economic challenges. Highlighting the importance of the Single Market for competitiveness and sustainable growth, it addresses the need to tackle regulatory fragmentation and enhance European integration.

The coalition proposes a comprehensive strategy to remove barriers, streamline regulations, and foster innovation. The statement emphasises setting ambitious 2030 targets, improving cross-border trade, and increasing engagement with the business community to create a more dynamic and inclusive Single Market.

“Brands are enjoyed and trusted by consumers across the EU. The Single Market is the anchor of our future competitiveness, and whilst we celebrate our local cultures, avoiding national regulatory fragmentation and reinforcing protection of Intellectual Property will stimulate innovation, and bring even more choice and benefits to European citizens.”
Michelle Gibbons, Director General AIM – European Brands Association
