The United Kingdom is reportedly in talks to join a €4 billion ($4.65 billion) European Union equity fund for startups later this year. EU Commissioner Ekaterina Zaharieva said the move serves mutual interests but requires a treaty change to reverse a previous British opt-out. Rejoining the fund would restore British access to continental venture capital pools and deepen post-Brexit financial ties with the bloc.
