Industrial strategies for Europe’s green transition
Jan 24, 08:46 AM
Industrial policies are not necessarily incompatible with competition and should be designed so that they do not slow down structural change and business dynamics.
In this episode of The Sound of Economics, Rebecca Christie invites Chiara Criscuolo and Reinhilde Veugelers. The speakers argue that the current pace of innovation is too slow to face the challenge of climate change and that a range of barriers and market failures remain at the root of the problem. To resolve these, a mission-oriented industrial strategy for the green transition is needed.
