Area experts from the U.S. Department of Commerce and private sector will provide resources and market intelligence to support U.S. businesses seeking to pursue these opportunities.

Join us to learn more about:

  • Export opportunities for U.S. clean technologies products and services

SCIP

Join the U.S. Commercial Service for a back-to-back, two-session webinar on June 30 starting at 11:30am EDT with the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) to help U.S. exporters understand and comply with “Substances of Concern in Products” (SCIP) registration. The purpose of this webinar is to enhance U.S. companies’ understanding of, and compliance with, the registration requirements of SCIP as set out in the EU’s Waste Framework Directive. The U.S. Mission to the UE and ECHA, the lead agency on SCIP, will lead the sessions and a Q&A at the end of each session will allow for industry engagement. The first session is for companies with little to no experience with SCIP. The second session is for advanced users – companies that have been entering information into the database and are actively facing difficulties. Companies are welcome to attend one or both of the sessions.

*Participants must be U.S. domiciled companies and/or must have export content (i.e. exports from the United States to the EU). Participants' exports must fall under the purview of SCIP database requirements. 

There is no fee to attend.
