Is Europe Losing the Economic Race? Can Finance Turn It Around?
Episode details
Episode description
Europe’s growth is slowing. Productivity is falling behind the United States, while China’s industrial power continues to accelerate. At the same time, many of Europe’s most promising companies still depend on foreign capital to scale. In this episode, we explore whether European finance can help reverse that trajectory, what is missing to build the next generation of globally competitive European companies. Together with Bruno Colmant and Philippe Gijsels, we examine the structural forces shaping Europe’s economic future and what it will take for Europe to compete in the decade ahead.
