Europe needs a reboot to restore its global competitiveness

This week we have launched our campaign for policy changes for the next EU political cycle, under the motto ‘Reboot Europe’.
To deliver for society, the EU needs strong companies as much as European companies need a strong European Union to succeed. Our companies are committed to producing quality goods and services at affordable prices, creating productive and fulfilling jobs, contributing to the financing of public services and infrastructure, and innovating to deliver enabling technologies for the green and digital transitions. Unfortunately, they are currently held back by high energy costs,
excessive regulation, lengthy permitting procedures, and skills and labour shortages. 
Commenting on what Europe needs to do during the next five years, BusinessEurope President Fredrik Persson said: “Faced with multiple geopolitical risks and economic uncertainty, the EU must put competitiveness at the forefront and use the next EU cycle to reboot its policies for today’s challenges”.
