EU launches "EU Inc" for startups

The European Commission unveiled "EU Inc" (the "28th regime"), a single EU-wide legal company structure. The goal is to allow startups to incorporate once and operate across all member states, reducing legal fragmentation and standardizing corporate and investment structures.

This initiative aims to reduce friction for cross-border scaling, with an immediate strategic impact on capital and expectations, but a real operational impact expected from 2027-2028.

Ban on "high-risk" tech suppliers

The EU has proposed mandatory rules to remove and replace technology from suppliers deemed "high-risk" in critical infrastructure. This move is part of a broader strategy to protect vital infrastructure from potential threats.

General context

These initiatives represent an attempt to make Europe a more favorable environment for innovation and technological growth, while addressing concerns about the security of critical infrastructure. The standardization of legal procedures and the removal of high-risk suppliers are important steps in this direction.
