Starting and growing a business in the EU is difficult: there are 27 different national legal systems to navigate, and 60+ different types of company forms. These create delays, extra costs, and push many companies to expand outside the EU instead.

The European Commission wants to change that with EU Inc., a new, optional framework that makes it simpler, cheaper and faster to start and grow a business anywhere across Europe.

EU Inc. will mean that Irish businesses and founders can:
✅ Register a company in 48 hours, fully online, for a maximum of €100
✅ Operate across Europe under one set of rules = no paperwork in every country
✅ Attract investors with simplified share transfers and potential stock exchange access
✅ Recruit top talent with EU-wide employee stock options

EU Inc. is currently a proposal and will need to be agreed by EU governments and the European Parliament. The Commission aim for a deal by the end of 2026.

Minister Dara Calleary TD announces expansion of areas eligible for CLÁR funding and launches CLÁR 2026 programme.

CLÁR (Ceantair Laga Árd-Riachtanais) is a targeted investment programme for rural areas that aims to provide funding for small infrastructural projects in designated rural areas that have experienced significant levels of de-population and/or socio-economic disadvantage and geographic remoteness. The programme is delivered by the Department of Rural & Community Development & the Gaeltacht (DRCDG) and the funding assists in building the resilience of these rural communities.

The review has resulted in the addition of new Electoral Divisions (EDs) in 20 counties.

The 2026 CLÁR programme, with an increased budget of €12 million, is now open for applications.
