EU Inc (the 28th regime) · 2026/0074(COD)
Calls for one single legal entity type across the EU to simplify investment and expansion, emphasizing the need for a unified framework to attract long-term capital and foster domestic growth.
Create one single legal entity type valid across all EU member states to avoid the need to understand different national company types.
“We need ONE legal entity for all of Europe, which allows overseas investors to create investment success stories and allows them to REPEAT those success stories across country borders in the EU with the same framework.”

Make the EU the best first market for startups to expand into by simplifying cross-border operations with a unified legal entity.
“Europe is missing out on a lot of domestic technology and business potential because it does not make ITSELF the best first market to expand into. This is a significant bottleneck for domestic growth and would be drastically simplified by having one legal entity that allows for easier operation across EU country borders.”

Ensure the legal entity allows for fast execution and easy operation across borders to support startup success and expansion.
“If it's not one and the same legal entity type, the investor will still have to understand the differences for each member state. This significantly reduces the attractiveness of the investment, because it slows down execution time, one of the primary success factors in startups.”
