I am of course very much aware that the interests of RIPE NCC, RIPE and indeed this working group extend beyond Brussels and the EU. But here are two items that I think will be of interest.
We will have elections for the European Parliament next year. And people are now also talking about the next Commission.

It is early days of course.
I would also like to point you to this booklet.

EDRi - European Digital Rights - work with a number of other associations across the EU. They have some solid experience in lobbying the EU institutions in Brussels.
The booklet explains how the institutional processes work. And of course how and when to best to influence them. Well worth a read.
