Listen "Accelerating Europe: Innovation, Investment & Growth"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, we explore the Accelerating Europe report (February 2025), which examines Europe’s innovation, competitiveness, and venture capital landscape. The report highlights concerns about Europe’s economic standing relative to the U.S., pointing to productivity gaps and historical underinvestment in VC funding as key barriers to growth. We discuss the need for strategic investments in technology, energy, and defense, as well as structural reforms to streamline regulations and foster innovation. Learn how better capital utilization—especially from pension funds—along with a unified market and a strong entrepreneurial focus, can help Europe compete on a global scale.
