🇪🇺 L’ EIC - European Innovation Council è il principale veicolo di investimento in #startup della Commissione Europea.
Dal 2020 l’EIC Fund ha effettuato 150 investimenti in startup diventando il principale early-stage tech investor in Europa (e mobilitando oltre 2,6 miliardi di euro di co-investimenti). Oltre 70 tra le EIC-backed startup hanno raggiunto la valutazioni di 100 milioni, con 6 oltre 500 milioni.
📍 All’EIC Summit 2025 di #Brussels è stato fatto il punto sui progressi e sulla svolta necessaria per andare oltre la frammentazione e la burocrazia in Europa.
“Non siamo un unico Paese: siamo 27 Stati”. Che, presi singolarmente, sono tutti piuttosto irrilevanti. Come ha ricordato #EnricoLetta: “In Europa ci sono due gruppi di Paesi: quelli piccoli e quelli che non sanno di esserlo”.
"Nel frattempo è cambiata anche la natura stessa dell’economia. Le quattro libertà alla base del Mercato Unico non includono ciò che oggi fa realmente la differenza..."
👉🏻 La quinta libertà e le nuove sfide per l'Europa nell'analisi e nell'approfondimento di Alberto Onetti da Brussels per EconomyUp - Nextwork360
