EU COMPETITIVENESS: LOOKING AHEAD

EU competitiveness: Looking ahead


INTRODUCTION

Today, Europe stands united in its pursuit of inclusive economic growth,
focusing on 

 * sustainable competitiveness
 * economic security
 * open strategic autonomy
 * fair competition

They all serve as pillars of prosperity. 

The vision that drives Europe forward is to create conditions where businesses
thrive, the environment is protected, and everyone has an equal chance at
success.

Sustainable competitiveness should make sure businesses are productive and
environmentally friendly. Economic security ensures that our economy can handle
challenges and protect jobs. With open strategic autonomy, Europe is not just
open for business; but is shaping a better, fairer world.




WAY FORWARD FOR EU’S COMPETITIVENESS

Europe's strong system of rights and values offers equal opportunities and leads
the way in social inclusion. Our institutions, economic frameworks, and
commitment to the rule of law create an environment where businesses can thrive
and people can prosper. Top-notch infrastructure and a skilled workforce give
Europe its competitive edge.

In a changing world with new challenges, the European Union is focused on
staying competitive and prosperous. We're working hard to maintain our
leadership globally and to make sure we have control over our own future.

Therefore Europe needs to look further ahead and set out how to remain
competitive. 

This is why Mario Draghi – former European Central Bank President and one of
Europe's great economic minds – was tasked by the European Commission to prepare
a report of his personal vision on the future of European competitiveness. 


THE FUTURE OF EUROPEAN COMPETITIVENESS: REPORT BY MARIO DRAGHI

The report looks at the challenges faced by the industry and companies in the
Single Market. 

The findings of the report will contribute to the Commission’s work on a new
plan for Europe’s sustainable prosperity and competitiveness. And in particular,
to the development of the new Clean Industrial Deal for competitive industries
and quality jobs, which will be presented in the first 100 days of the new
Commission mandate.
