EOC EU Office at the EOC General Assembly in Frankfurt, Germany

From 28 February to 1 March, the 54th EOC General Assembly is taking place in Frankfurt, Germany. The EOC EU Office is actively participating with a dedicated stand, where our team is available to engage with participants to discuss the evolving European political landscape, key policy developments within European institutions, and strategic planning for the post-2027 Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF). Furthermore, opportunities for European funding can be discussed, alongside the advancement of our flagship projects—SIGGS 3.0, OCEAN, and SAFE HARBOUR—and their respective tools aimed at enhancing good governance in sport. 

The Director of the EOC EU Office, Folker Hellmund, will address the EOC General Assembly, presenting the Office’s accomplishments during the concluding mandate and outlining strategic objectives for the forthcoming year.

The 54th General Assembly holds particular significance following the election of the President, Vice-President, Secretary General, Treasurer, and 12 Executive Committee (ExCom) members. Additionally, candidates for the International Olympic Committee President will be attending to present their agendas to the European National Olympic Committees, offering an opportunity for meaningful engagement and discourse on the future direction of the Olympic Movement.
