The EU must review its R&I policy with a view to its role in the global clean industrial revolution amidst rising technological and geopolitical challenges. Speakers at the Reception will reflect on the EU's strategy to keep pace with the US and China, focusing on the one side on policy reforms needed to become a global leader in clean industries and the green economy and on the other side how to attract more funding to European clean tech startups and industries by means of the Strategic Technologies for Europe Platform (‘STEP') and the feasibility of a "European Sovereignty Fund".
