Before the working day begins, there will once again be a concise presentation on a current EU topic. Start the day with us, fresh croissants, and coffee. In-person only, places are limited.
Europe’s industry is under enormous pressure: Chinese products are flooding the European market, the roll-out of climate-friendly technologies such as green steel is stalling, and concerns are growing in strategic sectors about new dependencies. With the planned Industrial Accelerator Act, the EU aims to counter this trend – including through ‘Buy European’ requirements and stricter conditions for foreign investment, designed to ensure their contribution to European value creation.
But how effective are these instruments in reality? Can Europe strengthen its industry in a targeted manner without jeopardising the single market or international partnerships? And how open can the EU remain when other countries are increasingly using their market power as a political lever?
Jannik Jansen and Philipp Jäger, both Senior Policy Fellows at the Jacques Delors Centre, will discuss these issues at the next EU to go breakfast.
The format: The topics and analyses will be presented in 20 minutes, followed by a ten-minute discussion. The event will end at 9:00 a.m. after only 30 minutes.
- 8:30 a.m.: Expert input
- 8:50 a.m.: Questions and answers
- 9:00 a.m.: Off to the office
The event takes place in German.
