BEE SA: What is BEE ?

BEE's approach is based on a consultative, high level, speaking partnership with our client's senior management, with relevant national and EU authorities and with key players such as industry associations, large companies, etc.. The purpose is to effectively make our client an insider in respect of that EU policy and regulation which is relevant to its operations and strategic interests.

Very often, this facilitates the consultation of the client by the European Commission on issues of importance to the relevant industry and thus, the process also provides the client with an opportunity to have a direct influence on how those issues are addressed at EU-level. This two-way communication process ensures that if the client needs to bring another serious issue to the Commission's attention at a future date, it is well-positioned and therefore perceived as a key player and consequently listened to and properly considered at the highest levels.

BEE provides:

an insider's insight into the on-going process of political change based on over 20 years of high-level experience with the EU decision making process;
confident, high level access to policy makers and influencers throughout Europe and the rest of the world;
professional expertise in state-of-the-art strategic anticipation, economic, public affairs and legal disciplines;
a multi-cultural organisation and network of contacts and contributors including leading individuals with a successful track record in politics, industry, finance and academia and bringing together an unique combination of high level, high value, sectoral, methodological and board-level management experience;
ability to understand and empathise with the perspectives of both government and corporate, senior, policy- and decision-makers , thus facilitating the establishment of constructive dialogues and partnerships between public and private players in order to achieve their respective objectives.

In assisting clients, BEE has three clear objectives:

to anticipate developments in the policy/regulatory process;
to overcome the latter's complexity, uncertainty and lack of transparency;
to minimise, as such, the risks of failure or loss of value due to the above process.
