VATTEL is a think-tank fostering thinking about the future of European policy-making.

Our passion is for efficient, inclusive and practical policy-making processes that ensure maximum value to both business and EU policy.

Our areas of expertise are manufacturing industries, energy, environment and health.

Combining traditional lobbying with social network tools, VATTEL has developed an idea of the Business to Policy B2P® concept.

In addition to going through technology/industry specific trade associations, businesses and policy-makers should talk directly in an open, inclusive and transparent way.

Better policy is a fusion of democracy (common interest) and a 'business case' (specific interest). In most cases it is the same interest, when not all-inclusive dialogue is the key.

VATTEL advice on negotiations and our training programmes are all customised and unique, reflecting your organisational and specific needs.

Our approach effectively combines elements of international academic negotiation theories and practices, psychological and linguistic guidelines and in-depth multi-subject knowledge of the international operating environment of Brussels.

VATTEL provides advice and facilitation on effective policy strategy, alliance building, and optimisation of communication and engagement.

Our expertise includes training and capacity building in policy communication tools. We pride ourselves on our analytic and evidence based approach, ensuring immediate value.

We are based in Brussels and London with a network of European experts.
