To tackle today’s global challenges, we need the right tools, capital, and environment to scale, compete, and make our voice count.

By starting at the bottom and helping the myriad of European entrepreneurs and small businesses that make up the backbone of our economy, in particular with access to finance, we can influence our overall competitiveness, sovereignty and our security. That, in turn, will make Europe a better place for each and every European citizen.

That’s why in 2025, we continued to work with our partners to make sure that we are contributing to making the European economy stronger. Because addressing tomorrow’s challenges starts with building a competitive landscape today. Right here at home.
