Global Gateway Strategy
INITIATIVEExternal Strategy, Economic Security & Democratic Resilience
The strategy will continued to be used to scale trusted digital, energy and transport links as the EU’s flagship investment offer, mobilising up to €300 billion by 2027 via Team Europe to de-risk private capital and deliver high standards. It prioritises secure connectivity (e.g. 5G, data centres and submarine routes in the Arctic, Black Sea and to partner regions) alongside space links like IRIS². Flagships include BELLA, MEDUSA and Blue-Raman cables, and Digital Economy Packages in Africa, with tailored investment packages for LAC and Central Asia. Governance couples business and civil society input to accelerate projects, skills and regulatory cooperation while reinforcing Europe’s strategic autonomy and partners’ economic resilience.
