The Commission will establish a pan-EU network that brings large companies, corporate venture investors and procurers into the startup ecosystem to accelerate adoption of European innovation. The network will advise on policy, run structured matchmaking with startups, and promote open-innovation partnerships. Members will make a voluntary commitment to prioritise European startups when they invest, partner or procure—especially where public funds are used or when operating critical research or technology infrastructures. By linking corporate demand, capital and distribution to innovators, the network aims to shorten time-to-market, create first-customer pathways, and keep strategic technologies scaling in Europe
