European Parliament Intergroup on long term investment and reindustrialisation
The European Parliament Intergroup on long term investment and reindustrialisation or #invest 4 future is an intergroup of the European Parliament's legislators which focuses on financing of long-term sustainable investment in the real economy within the European Union. It is aimed to accompany European regulatory work during the period 2014-2019.[1]

The campaign was initiated by the French Caisse des Dépôts et Consignations, the Italian Cassa Depositi e Prestiti and the German KfW.[3]
