InvestEU - To mobilise investments in Europe
The InvestEU programme builds on the successful model of the Investment Plan for Europe that mobilised more than €500 billion in the period 2015-20.
With the aim of triggering a new wave of over €372 billion in investment in the period 2021-27, the InvestEU Programme will boost innovation and job creation in Europe. It will provide and attract long-term funding in line with EU policies and contribute to economic recovery.
