The European Commission has unveiled its 2025 strategy for the Single Market, outlining a bold vision to make it simpler, more seamless, and future-proof. Central to the plan is the introduction of EU-wide business frameworks—often referred to as “28th regime” solutions—that offer startups and SMEs a streamlined, digital-first alternative to complex national systems.
Key takeaways:
- The strategy proposes an EU company law instrument to:
- Reduce legal fragmentation across Member States
- Enable online company creation within 48 hours
- Support SMEs and scale-ups with a unified, efficient legal structure
Other key priorities include:
- Eliminating the “Terrible Ten” market barriers
- Unlocking high-impact service sectors
- Strengthening SME access to cross-border opportunities
- Embracing digital tools for seamless integration
- Ensuring effective enforcement and national ownership
