    Invested by Europe: Why Nuclear Fusion Could Change the Future of Energy

    Nuclear fusion is the process that powers the sun. If it can be made to work efficiently on Earth, it could reshape global energy systems — offering a clean, abundant and stable source of power. In this episode of Invested by Europe, Franz Derler from the European Investment Bank explains how fusion works, why even a small amount of mass can produce an enormous amount of energy, and why fusion has so far only been achieved at laboratory scale. He discusses the two major technological approaches — magnetic confinement and laser fusion — and the rapid rise in private investment, with more than $10 billion committed in just five years. If fusion becomes a reality, the implications for the climate, the economy and even global geopolitics would be profound. Invested by Europe looks at the forces shaping the European economy — and how breakthrough technologies might define the future. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Invested by Europe: Why Quantum Computing is Crucial for Europe

    Quantum computing is not about making today’s computers faster. It represents a fundamentally different way of solving problems — one that could unlock breakthroughs that are currently out of reach. In this episode of Invested by Europe, Nikolay Dimov, a European Investment Bank investment officer, explains what makes quantum computing different from classical computing, why its impact on everyday life will be indirect but significant, and how it could accelerate innovation in areas such as medicine, energy and advanced materials. The discussion looks at quantum from an investment and strategic perspective: why early, patient capital matters in a deeply capital‑intensive sector, how Europe can remain in the global race, and why quantum computing is not only a technological capability but also a geopolitical lever linked to Europe’s strategic independence. Invested by Europe explores the forces shaping the European economy — and how long‑term investment is helping Europe prepare for the technologies that will define tomorrow. Hosted on Acast.

    Invested by Europe: How Climate Action Boosts Europe’s Competitiveness

    Climate investment is often seen as a cost. But it’s a powerful driver of competitiveness, resilience and long‑term growth for Europe. In this episode of Invested by Europe, Fotios Kalantzis, senior climate economist at the European Investment Bank, explains why investing in climate is not only about cutting emissions. Climate action reduces Europe’s dependence on fossil fuel imports, improves energy efficiency, creates jobs and strengthens economic security. The conversation explores how the green transition opens new markets and how public investment and EU climate policies are driving demand for clean energy solutions. We also look at the importance of energy efficiency for smaller firms, and how tools such as the EIB’s Green Checker help companies identify and finance green investments. Invested by Europe explores the forces shaping the European economy — and how investment can turn climate ambition into economic opportunity. Hosted on Acast.

    Invested by Europe: Why Space is the Backbone of Europe’s Economy

    Space is often associated with rockets and missions to the Moon. But space technology underpins many of the services we rely on every day — from navigation and weather forecasting to communications, agriculture and secure financial transactions. In this episode of Invested by Europe, Pierre Limouzin, senior investment officer at the European Investment Bank, explains why space has become a strategic sector for Europe’s economy and security. He discusses how falling launch costs and new technologies have transformed the industry, what makes investing in space different from other tech sectors, and why strengthening Europe’s space ecosystem is essential for competitiveness and sovereignty. We also explore how satellite manufacturing is changing, the dual‑use nature of space technologies, and how space data could shape daily life in the years to come — from Earth observation to more futuristic applications such as manufacturing and healthcare research that’s carried out in space. Invested by Europe explores the forces shaping the European economy. In each episode, we hear from experts working on some of Europe’s most important long‑term challenges — and how investment is helping turn innovation into impact. Hosted on Acast.

  5. Invested by Europe: How to Play Defence Against Climate Change

    Invested by Europe: How to Play Defence Against Climate Change

    Climate action is about more than cutting emissions. Even if mitigation succeeds, societies and economies will continue to face climate risks for years to come. Climate adaptation is how those risks are managed. In this episode of Invested by Europe, we speak with Roman Röhrl, climate change specialist at the European Investment Bank, about what climate adaptation really means and how it works in practice. The conversation explores how adaptation helps protect people, infrastructure and economic activity from climate hazards such as flooding, heatwaves and drought. The episode looks at why adaptation needs to be built into investment decisions across sectors, how long‑term finance and clear standards can help scale up resilience, and the role that institutions, policymakers and the financial sector play in supporting climate‑resilient development. 🎧 Invested by Europe is the European Investment Bank’s video podcast exploring how Europe invests in its future — from climate and energy to housing, infrastructure and social cohesion.

    Invested by Europe: What Actually Makes Affordable Housing Possible?

    Across Europe, affordable housing depends on more than construction alone. It requires long‑term finance, clear rules, access to land and careful urban planning. In this episode of Invested by Europe, we speak with Grzegorz Gajda, Senior Urban Specialist at the European Investment Bank, about what makes affordable housing work in practice. Drawing on experience from across Europe and beyond, the conversation looks at how governments, cities, investors and institutions can work together to increase supply, keep housing affordable and build sustainable urban communities. The episode explores how long‑term funding mechanisms, effective regulation, land recycling and mixed‑use development can help deliver housing that people can afford — and cities that function better for everyone. 🎧 Invested by Europe is the European Investment Bank’s video podcast, exploring how Europe invests in its future — from housing and energy to innovation, infrastructure and social cohesion.

    Invested by Europe: How Innovation Could Make Construction an Industry You’ll Want to Work in

    Explore how innovation in construction materials, digital tools and industrialised processes could transform how Europe builds—and who works in construction.    The conversation looks at why construction has changed so little for decades and how technologies such as digital twins, Building Information Modelling (BIM), robotics and artificial intelligence are reshaping design, production and collaboration. Industrialised, factory-based construction offers major gains in precision, cost control, waste reduction and worker safety. That will make construction attractive to young people and help solve the industry’s labour shortage.    The episode argues for a life-cycle approach to buildings, from design and construction to operation and end-of-life reuse of materials. By combining innovation with circular thinking, Europe can deliver buildings that are both affordable and sustainable. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Invested by Europe: Why Social Investment Drives Europe’s Economic Success

    Social investment shapes everyday life in Europe — from education and healthcare to childcare and housing. In this episode of Invested by Europe, we explore why investing in social infrastructure is not just about social protection, but a key driver of inclusive economic growth.    The podcast looks at how social investment helps more people participate in the labour market, boosts productivity and supports ageing societies. We examine gaps in childcare provision, the housing affordability challenge and Europe’s growing skills shortages — and why addressing them could significantly strengthen Europe’s economy.    The episode also explores how innovation, including digitalisation and artificial intelligence, can help deliver social services more efficiently, even as fiscal pressures rise.
