Er, what exactly is this? It's not mentioned anywhere for laypeople like me. Perhaps they should focus on explaining what this project is, before asking for people to spread awareness. How can you spread awareness about something you don't even know what it is?

I agree. It looks very unprofessional. No contact adress. No representative person. No explanation of the acronym "EU-INC". Big buzzwords, visions, clichés and self congratulation.

Which isn't to say that "making commerce cheaper in Europe" isn't a worthwhile goal, it is- but at face value this attempt looks comically inept. "We wrote an email to a politician! Progress due any moment! Like and share!"

Doing the insufferable, thankless work of mitigating the commercial choke-points of bureaucracy on a Continental scale makes this effort's failure a forgone conclusion. I would take the attempt more seriously if the individuals tried to make their own country more commerce-friendly, rather than all of Europe.

Even so, points for trying something- anything- and raising "awareness".

There is a pretty good TL;DR on their "In-Depth Proposal" site: https://proposal.eu-inc.org/TL-DR-14d076fd79c581959325c8e52d...

Thanks, but from a quick glance I couldn't find it on the homepage. Also, it's a Notion document, they could instead just write all of these points on their landing page?

It reveals too much that this is actually done by amateurs. Heck, even the most basic business courses I took at a European uni show that this is NOT how you want to attract potential customers or investors.
