Europe has the talent. The capital. The technology.
Yet for many Europeans, economic progress is no longer moving fast enough when it comes to incomes, opportunity, access to finance or innovation.
In a world of rising competition between major economies, Europe’s leaders are coming together to tackle what’s holding back higher prosperity and growth.
Because competitiveness isn’t just about economics. It shapes the everyday life of Europeans for decades to come - the jobs people can access, their incomes and size of their wealth, their access to critical infrastructure such as healthcare, affordable energy and transportation. It will decide which successful industries Europe builds and the opportunities future generations inherit.
This film brings together voices from business, policy and innovation to explore one question: not whether Europe can build a better future for its citizens, but how it can achieve results, together.
The Leaders for European Growth and Competitiveness community is helping turn dialogue into action by connecting the public and private sectors to address barriers and drive Europe’s next phase of growth.
