  4. European Champions: How to shape future industrial policy and champion global competition?
Veranstaltung 17. November 2020 Aljoscha Nau European Champions: How to shape future industrial policy and champion global competition?

In times of COVID-19, digital- and sustainable transformations and increased foreign competition, European industry is under pressure from within and outside. Simultaneously, European companies are confronted with the rise of China on global markets and fierce competition from Chinese state-subsidized enterprises or SOEs. In the light of these challenges, the calls for new European Champions have grown louder and louder over the past two years.

Simultaneously, European companies are confronted with the rise of China on global markets and fierce competition from Chinese state-subsidized enterprises or SOEs. In the light of these challenges, the calls for new European Champions have grown louder and louder over the past two years.
