EU Startup and Scaleup Strategy

Startups and scaleups are amongst the key drivers of innovation, as they often develop and introduce breakthrough innovative products and solutions to the market. A thriving startup and scaleups ecosystem plays a key role in economic growth and market evolution by driving productivity, incentivising investments and creating quality jobs. 

EU startups and scaleups have the potential to create new markets in which the EU can take global leadership, while increasing the EU’s competitiveness by closing the innovation gap with its main global competitors.
