Key messages from the Helsinki-Uusimaa Regional Council: All EU legislation must support resource use within planetary boundaries and promote biodiversity and climate action. Binding, clear and harmonized EU-level legislation for circular economy is crucial for the competitiveness of the whole EU. Circular economy is the source of the growth in the EU and reinforces EU´s position in the green transition globally.

What they argued
Helsinki-Uusimaa Region welcomes the opportunity to contribute to the consultation on the Industrial Accelerator Act. The region accounts for one-third of Finlands population, 39% of GDP, half of R&D expenditure, one third of industrial value added and nearly half of the chemical industry. The objective of strengthening Europes industrial base is essential but requires further refinement.
Helsinki-Uusimaa Regional Council welcomes the European Competitiveness Fund (ECF) to close the investment and innovation gap across Europe and support strategic sectors such as clean technologies, digital leadership, and the bio and circular economy.
The Helsinki-Uusimaa Regional Council welcomes the European Commissions initiative to prepare a European Innovation Act (EIA). The Act is timely to strengthen Europes ability to bring innovations to market, scale across borders, and maintain global competitiveness.
