On 25th June, EFESME held its annual Board of Directors and General Assembly, bringing together its members to review current activities and define strategic priorities for the years ahead.
The meeting served as a key opportunity for the Federation’s leadership and national associations to discuss ongoing initiatives, assess current challenges, and strengthen EFESME’s role both within Europe and internationally. A strong focus was placed on future actions to protect and promote the interests of European lift SMEs, ensuring they remain competitive in an evolving global market.
The EFESME experts team also shared the latest technical updates from the lift sector, offering members valuable insights into ongoing standardisation work, regulatory developments, and future trends that will impact the lift industry.
During the General Assembly, EFESME also officially welcomed AECAE, the Spanish association of lift component manufacturers, as a new member. With its technical expertise and deep knowledge of the components sector, AECAE’s membership reinforces EFESME’s commitment to expanding its network and strengthening the voice of lift SMEs across Europe
This annual gathering reaffirmed EFESME’s commitment to act as a united and sole voice for lift SMEs, working proactively to support innovation, fair market access, and SME-driven growth across the sector.
EFESME would like to thank its members for their active participation in the meeting and in the activities organised together during the first half of the year.
