Thematic scope
Europe’s industry is under legislative and geopolitical pressure. What is the impact of the ambitious climate policy on the conditions in which European companies operate? In the meantime, competitors from outside the EU function in less stringent legal systems. How to create a level playing field and prevent the weakening of Europe's industrial base? The overarching principle is maintaining the right balance between transforming the economy and maintaining the competitiveness of European industry. Poland and France have been cooperating to strengthen European supply chains and improve the continent’s economic resilience.
