Ahead of the U.S. Midterms: What Companies Should Watch in Washington, July 8

Ahead of the U.S. Midterms: What Companies Should Watch in Washington

An intimate fireside conversation with
Amanda Wood Senior Director, Becker Washington D.C.
in dialogue with
Anissa Fersi Global Head of Public Affairs, HomeExchange
with legal insights from
Gabriel Monzon-Cortarelli Chair of Becker’s International Practice Group

Wednesday, July 8, from 8:30 to 10:00 am

For French and European companies with U.S. operations, partnerships, or ambitions, Washington has never been more consequential — or more difficult to read. Tariffs, regulatory shifts, industrial policy, and a rapidly evolving political landscape are creating both pressure and opportunity for international businesses navigating the U.S. market.

As the 2026 midterm elections approach, the stakes are high. A shift in the balance of power in Congress could reshape the trade agenda, alter enforcement priorities, open or close legislative windows, and redefine the conditions under which European companies operate and invest in the United States.

This breakfast discussion is designed for French and European executives who want to understand:

  • How to advocate for their interests in Washington
  • How to engage effectively with U.S. political and regulatory stakeholders
  • What different midterm election scenarios could mean for their U.S. strategy
  • What companies can do now, what to watch for, and how to stay ahead of developments that may matter in the months and years ahead
Becker will also provide additional insights on the legal and structural considerations for European companies investing in, expanding into, or operating in the United States.
