Markus J. Beyrer calls on S&D MEPs to help us reform to perform

On the invitation of Gianni Pittella, President of the Socialists and Democrats group in the European Parliament (S&D), Director General Markus J. Beyrer spoke to the S&D group and outlined to MEPs our priorities on how to make Europe’s economy strong again.  Speaking about the future of social Europe, he explained why we first need to make the framework conditions in Europe, and our member states fit again, so that companies can perform and do what they do best:  create growth and jobs. Markus J. Beyrer also explained the strong support of the European business community to find European solutions to the refugee crisis and to fight for Schengen, one of the most successful and tangible results of European integration.  President Pittella and many S&D MEPs strongly welcomed this exchange of views and suggested having this useful exchange on a more regular basis.
