Employee Share Ownership - The European Policy
"Employee
share ownership for all" - this is the goal of the
European Policy for 30 years. Today we are 10 million
employee shareholders in Europe. However we would
be six times more to be comparable with the USA. A
European Action Plan was requested by the European
Council in 2000, announced by the Commission in 2002,
prepared by a Pilot Project in 2014. It has now to
be implemented.
Please
use this button for pre-registration. Given the limited
number of places and for security reasons, the conference
will be only by invitation.

Europe
could be the world’s most entrepreneurial continent.
But
policies that currently govern employee ownership
across Europe are often archaic and highly ineffective.
“Some
are so punishing that they put our startups at a major
disadvantage"...
