Info Members: The person representing Der Mittelstand.BVMW in Brussels is 50% paid by BVMW and 50% paid by the European Umbrella organisation of SME associations called European Entrepreneurs CEA-PME (registered here under 077142018281-86). Der Mittelstand.BVMW does of course contribute as a member of European Entrepreneurs CEA-PME also to this organisation, but it is not possible to calculate the direct monetary benefit allotted to BVMW from representation costs, events, publications, travel, membership fees, etc. managed, financed and organised together with CEA-PME. The indicated costs under heading 14 represent the annual costs for the 50% position of it's Brussels Head of Office, the costs for an office room in Brussels and an average of annual travel costs of BVMW representatives travelling to Brussels for meetings with EU officials. This does all together not exceed 49.999€. The membership contribution to CEA-PME is of course not included into this calculation, but into that of CEA-PME.
