On the 3rd July 2018, the new Joint Paper on “A Governance Structure for an ambitious EU Industrial Strategy” was published. The joint position paper is co-signed by 122 member associations of the Industry4Europe coalition.
In the aftermath of the two previous Industry4Europe Joint Papers “For an ambitious EU Industrial Strategy: Going further” (October 2017) and “Setting indicators for an ambitious EU Industrial Strategy” (March 2018), this new Joint Paper aims at proposing a governance structure which enables the implementation of an ambitious EU Industrial Strategy, based on an informed dialogue between the industry, decision-makers at EU, national, regional and local levels and the Civil Society.
More specifically, a future Industrial Strategy governance structure should be based on the following two pillars:
Ensuring an informed and permanent dialogue between the industry and policy decisionmakers in association with civil society stakeholders (trade unions, consumers organisations, NGOs, academia) and;
A structure of European Institutions which allows for an Industrial Strategy to be addressed and implemented at highest level.
