-The ESF was formed in 1998 (originally called the European Services Network) to provide private sector advice and information directly to the EU’s [[WTO]] negotiators. Its formation was supported by CEOs of leading European corporations and federations as well as Europe’s major employer association [[UNICE]]. [[British Invisibles]] was a ‘prominent member’. So too were companies that have benefited from privatization of services such as the giant water companies [[Suez]] and Vivendi/[[Veolia]]. <ref>Sharon Beder, ''Suiting Themselves: How Corporations Drive the Global Agenda'', Earthscan, London, 2006, pp.140-1.</ref>

 [[Andrew Buxton]] was the first chair of the ESF. According to ESF Managing Director, [[Pascal Kerneis]], ‘the European industry understood that it was important to work together in order to exchange information and to defend global European service industries positions.’<ref>Pascal Kerneis, 'The Perspective of the European Private Sector in the GATS Negotiations', Paper presented at the Regional Seminar on Services: ASEAN, Bangkok, Thailand, 27 June, 2000, p. 4.</ref>
