Thematic scope

How to prevent the “slow agony” of the EU economy and make it competitive and resilient to geopolitical turmoil? The impact of the trade and economic policies of the new U.S. administration on global relations and competition. The investment gap between the EU and the U.S. and China – particularly in new technologies. A new European investment front for achieving digital and green transformation goals. Revising the “tactics” of the Green Deal – an opportunity to restore competitiveness? Financing investments – private and public funds, the issue of common European debt. Decarbonising the economy to enhance competitiveness – does climate policy require a tactical adjustment? Health, food, and digital security: reducing dependence on non-European suppliers, developing and supporting domestic technologies and solutions, fostering research and development cooperation.
