Media Partnership: Research & Innovation for a competitive green transition - EU policy dialogue
Description
This high-level policy debate will convene key actors to discuss the critical role of research and innovation in helping to drive Europe’s green transition and enhancing its competitiveness, resilience and strategic autonomy. The dialogue will cover a range of topics, including the fostering of green startups and scaleups, effective measures to combat green disinformation and its erosion of public trust and sound policy making, and the strategic importance of green and blue diplomacy in addressing global environmental and security challenges. Discussions on these topics are timely as the negotiations on the next EU’s long-term budget plan are starting up.
By bringing diverse perspectives to the table, this policy debate aims to stimulate forward-thinking dialogue on how Europe can accelerate the transition to a resilient, competitive, and secure green economy. Speakers will look at the role of R&I as an enabler of the green transition and explore how its policy, economic and societal impact can accelerate in the coming years. We invite you to join this timely conversation and contribute to shaping the future of EU research and innovation for sustainable prosperity.
This policy dialogue will set the scene for the full-day "R&I for a Competitive Green Transition" conference, organised by the European Commission, Directorate-General for Research and Innovation, on 24 June 2025 in Brussels. Topics introduced in this policy dialogue session will be explored in more depth during this conference, which is a satellite event of the European Research and Innovation Days.
