After the voting process by the current members of the ETCMA General Assembly, the FEMTC has been accepted as a full member, with the unanimous vote of all current members, an issue that we value very positively and encourages us to work side by side with our new travel companions, in defence of the interests of all who are part of the FEMTC and the sector, also at European level.

With this incorporation, the FEMTC becomes a member of EUROCAM, through ETCMA, the lobbying tasks which we have been performing in the European Union, both in the European Commission (Brussels), and in the European Parliament (Strasbourg), will be benefited from the structure and assistance of this important institution.
