They deserve support and nurturing. The EU should empower European technology through a strategic approach, encouraging innovation and a unified EU framework for market growth.  💡 Smart Rules for a Stronger Europe The EU should prioritize enforcing existing regulations and addressing regulatory overlaps . Going forward any regulation should take a tailored, problem-based and proportionate approach to regulating diverse digital business models. 🤝Better enforcement for fairer competition Promoting growth of European businesses in a globally competitive environment requires strong enforcement of EU laws to ensure a level playing field. European businesses need a clear, consistent and predictable legal framework to grow and innovate.
