Starting in 2018, the European Commission will kick off a series of actions to foster rural development. These actions include the development of business models and data sharing for rural areas, the creation of pilot projects to improve logistics for villages and towns, and the use of the Horizon 2020 program to foster a “rural renaissance.” These are just a few of the planned initiatives.
