Saarlander Philip Hoffmann: New head of the parliamentary group!
On September 12, 2025 there will be news from the Bundestag: Philip Hoffmann, CDU member from the Saarlouis constituency, was newly elected to parliament and has taken over the leadership of the Belgium-Luxembourg parliamentary group. At 36, Hoffmann brings a breath of fresh air to the committee work and succeeds Patrick Schnieder, who has led the group since 2014. “It is time to strengthen relationships with our neighbors and actively shape them,” explains Hoffmann, who feels in good hands in his new role.
From the German-Luxembourg border to Berlin - Hoffmann grew up in this region and established deep connections with his European neighbors through his studies in economics and business administration in Luxembourg, France, Belgium and the USA. He has worked in the fund industry in Luxembourg for over nine years and knows first-hand the diverse aspects of international cooperation. He would now like to actively incorporate these experiences into his political work.
Professional background
Hoffmann started as a banker before concentrating on studying economics. His professional positions in the fund industry have given him extensive knowledge of the financial markets and the interaction between European countries. “Strong partnerships are the key to successful cooperation within Europe,” emphasizes the new chairman of the parliamentary group, who would like to actively shape exchanges with Belgium and Luxembourg in the future.
Outlook for the legislative period
With his professional experience and his familiarity with neighboring countries, Hoffmann is confident that he can provide positive impulses. “I particularly want to include the young generation in the dialogue,” he says, pointing out that the future of Europe lies in the hands of the next generation. Adapting the political framework to the needs of citizens is one of his central tasks, which he would like to tackle with commitment.
His commitment to strong European cooperation is important not only for his party, but also for the people who live in the regions that benefit from this cooperation. With a fresh approach and a good sense of the challenges that lie ahead of the European Union, Hoffmann will do everything in his power to further deepen the exchange with Belgium and Luxembourg and thus strengthen the community.
