APEP Membership

Since the early 1980s, APEP study programs have facilitated face-to-face dialogue between over two thousand participants – Dutchmen, Americans, Chinese, Japanese who due to their position, stature, expertise or talent can make a difference in the relations between their countries – and thousands of other interesting, influential and inspiring persons on the receiving side. APEP has been able to organize these programs on a not-for-profit basis thanks to the annual contributions made by its Members: government ministries and agencies, provinces, universities and a broad range of businesses including banks, energy companies, consultancies, construction firms and high-tech companies.
