🚀 The path to collaboration between Poland and Taiwan is paved with bridges... 🌉 How many bridges do we need to build? How many crossings? 📅 We are pleased to invite you to "Bridge No. 1," an event organized by the Polish-Taiwanese Chamber of Commerce and Industry in collaboration with Regionalny Ośrodek Debaty Międzynarodowej w Warszawie, Trójmorze Foundation and supported by Partners PIRE - Polska Izba Rozwoju Elektromobilności and Fundacja GreenLab. On July 24, we will gather with companies and organizations supporting bilateral cooperation. Among us will be seasoned players as well as those exploring the market's potential for the first time. We will exchange experiences and expectations. We will meet on the bridge... which we aim to cross together. This is a unique opportunity to network with entities that are creating growing cooperation opportunities between our countries. Currently, we are witnessing significant activity in our economic relations, with direct investments and an increasing number of companies establishing trade relations or partnerships. 💼💡 Major investments in the semiconductor industry in Poland and Germany—where Taiwan is a global leader—are significantly influencing this situation. However, it's not just the tech industry that's a platform for exchange. Other sectors include machinery, food, biotechnology, healthcare, and more. 🌍 We aim to explore various aspects of cooperation to build a lasting partnership and a diversified platform of understanding between our countries. Therefore, we are discussing where we stand today in building this cooperation and how to achieve business success. 🔜 Join us to be part of this extraordinary event and help build the bridges to the future!

Last week in Milan, we brought together over 30 investors and founders to chart the future of Cleantech for Italy and begin shaping our 2025 work plan. It was inspiring to witness the Italian cleantech community's dedication to driving industrial leadership and competitiveness. Here are some key insights from our discussion: 💰 Italy needs more blended finance instruments to accelerate the #industrialization of late-stage scaleups. These include but are not limited to grants and incentives. Initiatives such as Breakthrough Energy Catalyst demonstrate how private and public capital can work hand in hand to support critical technology demonstrations. 🏦 #Bankability is pivotal for unlocking the capital flows needed to scale cleantech champions. Public #guarantees and sector-specific #offtaking frameworks are essential, especially in a country like Italy, with its robust industrial base. However, we must enhance the dialogue between established companies and scaleups to drive cleantech #adoption. ⚖️ Public #procurement should embrace openness and include emerging technologies with national and European strategic relevance. These solutions are not only competitive with current alternatives but can also spur job creation and de-risk supply chains. 🧪 #Technology #transfer remains critical to make sure that the research efforts carried out by public and private organizations are translated into promising technologies and viable business opportunities. Simplifying and harmonizing existing frameworks is the first, crucial step to simplify this process. 🚛 #Trade and #competition policy is key to ensuring European innovators have a level playing field. Strengthening EU partnerships and shifting towards an "EU in the world" approach will create better market conditions for cleantech innovations globally. Looking forward to taking these insights forward as we shape the next steps for Cleantech for Italy! The momentum is building and, with continued collaboration, we can turn these #ambitions into #action.

The "Trusted Investors Network", one European Commission’s new initiative just announced yesterday, reflect a sincere willingness to advancing deep tech innovations, crucial for enhancing the EU's competitiveness, especially against global tech leaders like the U.S. and China. The support for sectors such as artificial intelligence, advanced manufacturing, renewable energy and other emerging technologies aligns with efforts to boost environmental and social sustainability. By fostering innovation, the EU aims to build resilience in its industries while addressing environmental an social inequalities concerns. I believe that while this, as other European Commission’s initiatives are a positive step, there are some concerns about its approach, first and foremost the proof that it has worked in the past with likewiseinitiatives. We must accept nonetheless that there is nor political nor societal willingness in the EU to adopt more unregulated, fast-paced methods seen in the U.S., nor the state-controlled, top-down approach of China. These more measured, collaborative strategy may slow progress compared to its rivals, but it remains a more sustainable and socially aligned vision for Europe and will go anyway in the direction of a more homogeneous and unified innovation ecosystem. It's a matter of ensuring agility without compromising core values. And, hopefully, without losing the game. https://lnkd.in/dTBCN2C8

🔟 leading European tech companies met Swedish officials, including four Ministers, to discuss Europe’s #DigitalAgenda and #Competitiveness. How can European tech companies excel on the global stage? 🔹 Empowering European businesses: Establishing a strong, fair playing field is essential for competing with global giants. 🔹 Competitiveness in action: It must move beyond rhetoric to become Europe’s driving force. 🔹 From regulation to enforcement: Following UVDL I, the "Regulatory Commission", it’s time for UVDL II to prioritise enforcement. 🔹 Proportionate and focused rules: Regulation should be tailored and implemented only when truly necessary. 🙏 A heartfelt thank you to our Swedish hosts and members. #Europe4Tech #Tech4Europe #EUTechLeadership
