On 10 December, Alzheimer Europe (AE) hosted a Company Round Table meeting in Brussels. It was attended by representatives from Biogen, Eisai, Essity, Lilly, Lundbeck, Nutricia, and Hoffman- La Roche. Jean Georges, the AE Executive Director, updated the organisation’s sponsors on its 2019 activities with a particular focus on the activities that were sponsored by the companies and sponsors. Delegates were provided with an update on the European Parliament elections, European Dementia Pledge, relaunch of European Alzheimer’s Alliance, relaunch of the European governmental experts group on dementia, the yearbook dedicated to the prevalence of dementia in Europe, the AE Public Affairs meetings and the Alzheimer’s Association Academy, which brought together the member organisations with capacity building workshops. Attendees also discussed the involvement of AE in EU projects and other corporate affairs activities including the Clinical Trial Watch, the lunch debates, the Dementia in Europe Magazine and the European Dementia Monitor. It was also an opportunity to highlight Alzheimer Europe’s planned activities and sponsorship opportunities for 2020.
