EU Inc. by BG2V is BG2V’s integrated offering designed to support innovative companies, scale-ups, investment funds, and international groups in preparing for and adopting the future unified European company regime, the “EU Inc.”.
This new optional and harmonized legal structure aims to streamline financing and business operations across the EU internal market by providing companies with a single, agile, and secure European legal platform.
Our goal is to anticipate forthcoming regulatory changes so that our clients can, in due course, operate across Europe as if within a truly unified market, benefiting from a simplified, digital, and growth-oriented legal framework.
As of today, the EU Inc. regime (also known as the “28th regime”) is not yet in force. On 18 March 2026, the European Commission submitted a draft directive to the European Parliament to that effect. However, the available information already highlights the strong potential and appeal of this structure.
Legislative and doctrinal sources
What the EU Inc. is expected to enable
- Simplified and fully digital incorporation at EU level
- Enhanced cross-border mobility (registered office, fundraising, governance)
- Reduced regulatory complexity: one unified legal framework instead of 27 national regimes
- Improved access to European investors and smoother international structuring
- A framework designed for start-ups, scale-ups, and tech-driven businesses, while remaining relevant for any company with a European growth strategy
Support available once the regime is stabilized
