The Dutch Startup Association (DSA) supports the European Commissions goal to simplify the EUs complex digital rules through the Digital Omnibus Package. Startups currently face overlapping regulations from the DSA/DMA to the AI Act and Data Act which hinder growth and cross-border scaling.

What they argued
On behalf of the Dutch Startup Association (DSA), we call for a single, harmonised EU company form established by regulation, not directive. Startups need clarity, speed, and uniformity to scale across the Single Market. Key points (see attachment for details): - One company form, one registry, one market digital-only, simple, and uniform.
The Dutch Startup Association (dSa), representing startups and scaleups across the Netherlands, strongly questions the need for a new Digital Fairness Act. Europes digital market is already governed by extensive legislation from the GDPR and the Consumer Rights Directive to the DSA and DMA. Adding yet another framework will not improve fairness or trust; it will add complexity, cost, and uncertainty.
Europes innovation economy is being held back by rules built for another era. The current Undertakings in Difficulty test treats high-growth, equity-financed startups as if they were failing companies excluding them from support schemes they were meant to benefit from. This revision is not a technical update; its a competitiveness test. Startups are loss-making by design they invest before they profit.
