Action Plan on synergies and cross-fertilisation between the civil, defence and space industries

Business and industry, Digital economy and society, Institutional affairs, Research and innovation

Defence, space and civil (including security) industries face unprecedented global competition, in a changing geo-political context. They also face new opportunities with the emergence of rapidly evolving technologies, and the emergence of new actors. By seeking synergies and cross-fertilisation in EU programmes, the EU will make more effective use of resources and technologies and create economies of scale.
