EU Foreign Direct Investment Breakdown
The European Union's Horizon Europe research and innovation programme has taken on an important project aimed at rethinking global supply chains. The project, titled "Rethinking Global Supply Chains: measurement, impact and policy" (RETHINK-GSC), is funded under grant agreement number 101061123.
RETHINK-GSC is a research and innovation project that focuses on measuring, understanding, and developing policies for global supply chains. The project is currently underway, with the European Commission playing a significant role in its execution.
The European Commission, in particular, is involved in the talks regarding the EU's revised Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) screening mechanism. This mechanism is the focus of interinstitutional talks, and the Commission is responsible for reviewing and revising EU-wide regulations on investments, including those related to mergers and acquisitions. The Commission considers aspects like innovation, resilience, and security when making decisions about investments from countries such as China, the USA, and others.
The project was officially launched with the event "Rethinking global supply chains: insights for a changing world" held on 18 September 2025. The event provided an opportunity for experts and stakeholders to discuss the importance of rethinking global supply chains and the role of the RETHINK-GSC project in this endeavour.
The RETHINK-GSC project is part of the European Union's Horizon Europe research and innovation programme, which aims to support groundbreaking research and innovation projects that have the potential to drive positive change in various sectors.
As the world continues to evolve, it is crucial to rethink global supply chains and develop policies that promote resilience, innovation, and security. The RETHINK-GSC project is a significant step towards achieving this goal, and its findings and recommendations are eagerly awaited.
