Invitation to Participate in the European Commission's Public Consultations on the EU's Multiannual Financial Framework for the Post-2027 Period

The European Commission is gathering opinions on future financing in the upcoming programming period.

ZAGREB, March 20, 2025 - The European Commission has recently published a Communication titled "Towards the Next Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF)," which outlines the key political and budgetary challenges that will shape the future budget of the European Union
Key highlights of the document include:
  • Optimizing the impact of financing and a stronger focus on the EU's core priorities;
  • The possibility of establishing a European Competitiveness Fund to support strategic sectors and key technologies;
  • Transitioning to a policy-based budget rather than one based on programmes;
  • Simplification and flexibility through a reduction in the number of programmes and the introduction of national plans that link reforms with investments, enabling quicker responses to crises
The European Commission plans to present a proposal for the new MFF in July 2025. However, before that, all stakeholders are being offered an opportunity to express their views on the future funding priorities through public consultations, which are open until May 6, 2025.
Given the importance of securing funding for various sectors, we especially highlight the consultations relevant to digital infrastructure, including Individuals, operators, businesses, local and regional government units, the academic community, and all other relevant stakeholders are invited to participate in the consultations and contribute to shaping the proposal for the new financial framework.
