Article says it’s not even the top tech company in lobbying.
Also, with the amount of business they do in the EU, meeting with various EU officials to discuss their point of view on issues isn’t crazy.
If half of the US tech-sector was instead european we would have so many more jobs and no countries in debt…
woah… precisely the amount Bloomberg spent to try to defeat Mamdani
A coincidence? I think not
Around $100k per meeting then? Are they paying more or less than otehrs per meeting?
That’s literally nothing for a company like Apple given its business in Europe. For reference, if they gave every MEP a free iPhone and Mac that would cost 2 million euros.
Not really surprised tbh. At least we’ve *some* degree of transparency about EU lobbying even if it’s less than it probably should be.
8m? Is it enough to get a conference room and travel people to 76 meetings?
