Steel for Packaging Europe is thrilled to support the first-ever APA Awards, coming to Brussels 28th January 2026!

This new initiative is designed to recognise and celebrate the invaluable work of Accredited Parliamentary Assistants (APA), whose expertise and dedication underpin the daily work of the European Parliament, and takes place in Brussels on 28th January 2026.

For many years, our association proudly supported the MEP Awards, highlighting the commitment and achievements of Members of the European Parliament across a wide range of policy areas. By backing the launch of the APA Awards, we are extending that tradition of recognition - shining a light on the often behind-the-scenes professionals whose contributions make the European Parliament function effectively.

We are thrilled to see this important step forward in valuing the essential role of APA's and look forward to celebrating their achievements at the inaugural ceremony.
