Chelsea Football Club is one of the world’s top football clubs, with 391 million estimated fans across the globe. UEFA Champions League winners in 2012, Chelsea FC followed that success by lifting the UEFA Europa League trophy in 2013. Formed in 1905, Chelsea is London’s most central football club, based at the iconic 42,000-capacity Stamford Bridge stadium.

Nicknamed ‘The Blues’, Chelsea are three-time Premier League champions and have also lifted the FA Cup seven times, the Football League Cup four times, the UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup twice, the UEFA Super Cup once and the Football League Championship once, in 1955.

As well as boasting some of the world’s most recognisable players, Chelsea has also invested in its future with a state-of-the-art Academy and training centre in Cobham, Surrey. Since its opening in 2007, the club has reached four FA Youth Cup finals, lifting the trophy twice.

EUBrasil is a Brussels based non-profit-making association created with the aim of supporting the development of fruitful business, political and cultural links between the European Union and Brazil.

It is a membership-based organisation, composed of three parts: the ‘business’ part - the EUBrasil Board - represented by the Members Companies, the ‘political’ part, that includes members of the European Parliament and finally, the ‘academic’ part - the Advisory Board - that gathers professors and specialists from all over the world.

Since the beginning of our activities we have focused our work on the promotion of the bilateral dialogue between these international actors, publishing papers, organizing working dinners and seminars on specific topics, following the activities of the Brazilian Government and those of the European Institutions.
