Get in touch with us nowThe number of foreign direct investment (FDI) projects in Europe rose sharply between 2012 and 2017, since which there has been a gradual decline in the number of new FDI projects. At its peak in 2017, a total of 6,653 new FDI projects were launched, compared to only 5,962 in 2022. Nevertheless, foreign investment in Europe has rebounded from its pandemic-induced low point in 2020, when only 5,578 new projects were started.
