The European Union Chamber of Commerce in China is pleased to announce that member company representatives have elected Jörg Wuttke as the new President. As President, Jörg will chair the Executive Committee, which is responsible for providing strategic direction for the Chamber and representing our 1,800 member companies. Jörg is a German national and has been Vice President and Chief Representative of BASF China since 1997. This will be his second stint as President of the European Chamber, after having previously served for three years between 2007 and 2010. He replaces the outgoing President, Davide Cucino, in the role.
The voting was held on 24th April at the European Chamber’s Annual General Meeting in Beijing, during which three Vice Presidents - Bertrand de La Noue, Mats Harborn and Sara Marchetta - and a Treasurer, Francois Bernard, were also elected to the Chamber’s Executive Committee. In the days leading up to the Annual General Meeting held in Beijing, Local Board elections were also held in the European Chamber’s six other Chapters across China. In their respective capacities as the elected chairpersons of the Shanghai and Pearl River Delta Chapters, Stefan Sack and Alberto Vettoretti have also been appointed as Vice Presidents of the Executive Committee. On 6th May, the 28 EU National Representatives on the Supervisory Board will also elect three States Representatives to the European Chamber's Executive Committee.
