Op-ed on LRT by Viktorija Jauniūtė, legal counsel at law firm Constat, analysing what the 28th regime would mean for Lithuanian companies. She covers SAFE-style financing, digital share transfers, central EU registry access and the open implementation questions around tax obligations and interaction with national law.
Detailed legal analysis on Teisė profesionaliai authored by COBALT senior lawyer Dominykas Jončas and legal assistant Kristina Valkiūnaitė. It walks through the regulation's key features — 48-hour incorporation, EUR 100 cap, no minimum capital, full digitalisation, fast-track liquidation — and contrasts EU Inc. with Lithuania's UAB (EUR 1,000 minimum capital) and the older Societas Europaea.
Žinių Radijas episode of 'Europos greitkeliu' devoted to EU Inc., aired the day after the Commission tabled the proposal. Host Aušra Jurgauskaitė discusses the 28th regime with Lithuania's Minister of Economy and Innovation Edvinas Grikšas and Marius Vaščega, head of the European Commission's Representation in Lithuania, examining concrete benefits for Lithuanian companies.
BNS-syndicated report on the European Commission's 18 March 2026 unveiling of EU Inc., a voluntary EU-wide legal framework that lets startups incorporate online within 48 hours, for under EUR 100, with no minimum share capital. The article frames the move as Europe's attempt to keep up with the US and China, quoting Ursula von der Leyen on simplifying cross-border business.
LRT (via BNS) previews the upcoming EU Inc. proposal — described as the '28th regime' — and explains it as a voluntary digital company form designed to help European firms compete with US and Chinese rivals. The piece flags concerns from the European Trade Union Confederation that the regime could erode worker protections, comparing it to the unsuccessful 1988 European Company attempt.
Infa.lt economics piece tied to the EU leaders' informal meeting at Alden Biesen Castle, framing the 28th regime as the Union's bet to stay competitive against US tariffs and Chinese green-tech subsidies. It explains that the voluntary regime would offer one EU-level set of rules on tax, labour, data protection and environment, with concrete legislation expected by early 2027.
