    Why space matters so much right now

    Europe owns two of the world's most advanced space systems, Galileo and Copernicus, but it spends just 10% of what the US invests in space. Experts from the European Space Agency and the European Commission explain how satellites shape daily life in ways most people never notice. We also look at how Russia's invasion of Ukraine exposed Europe's dependence on foreign rockets, and why closing the investment gap is a strategic imperative.

    Invested by Europe: Why deep tech matters for Europe’s economy and everyday life

    Deep tech is often described as the opposite of conventional or “shallow” technology. Rather than focusing on incremental improvements in software or business models, deep tech is driven by scientific breakthroughs aimed at solving real-world problems that persist over time.  In this episode of Invested by Europe, Jussi Hätönen, head of European Innovation Council Fund investments at the European Investment Bank, explains:  what deep tech really means how it differs from traditional tech innovation why it takes longer and costs more to develop why getting deep tech right is essential for Europe’s competitiveness, resilience and sovereignty.  Hosted on Acast.

    Invested by Europe: How sustainable liquid fuels will decarbonise aviation and shipping

    Gasoline prices are rising, and while drivers can switch to electric cars, other sectors face fewer alternatives. Aviation, shipping and heavy transport still rely on liquid fuels — and electrification is not yet a realistic option for many of these fleets.  In this episode of Invested by Europe, Tiago Lopes, a senior engineer at the European Investment Bank, explains:  what sustainable liquid fuels are why they are critical for aviation and maritime transport what is preventing them from being produced at scale in Europe what is at stake for Europe’s energy security and strategic autonomy.  Hosted on Acast.

    Invested by Europe: How Cleantech is Driving Europe’s Energy Transition

    Cleantech is no longer a niche sector. It is at the heart of a full‑scale industrial transformation, shaping how Europe produces energy, decarbonises industry and builds a more resilient economy.  In this episode of Invested by Europe, Sofia Viola, an investment officer at the European Investment Bank, explains:  What cleantech is today — a clue: it’s more than just renewable energy Why energy storage is critical to balancing renewable supply and demand Why batteries are crucial to stabilising the power system Why industrial decarbonisation is essential for competitiveness How the EIC Fund supports cleantech startups and scale‑ups Why access to long‑term capital remains a key challenge in Europe What makes her optimistic about the future of cleantech The conversation also explores why cleantech represents a major economic opportunity — and why scaling these technologies will be decisive for Europe’s energy transition.  Hosted on Acast.

    Invested by Europe: Why Biotech is Vital to Europe’s Economy as well as its Health

    Biotechnology is one of Europe’s most important — and most challenging — innovation sectors. From vaccines and drugs to medical devices and digital medicine, biotech underpins Europe’s health systems, competitiveness and economic sovereignty.  In this episode of Invested by Europe, Antoine de Lachaux, head of the life science and biotech unit at the European Investment Bank, explains:  What biotech means — from pharmaceuticals and vaccines to medical devices and digital health Why life sciences are strategically important for Europe Why biotech innovation takes time, carries high risk and requires patient capital How Europe’s fragmented market makes scaling more difficult than in the United States What the proposed Biotech Act could change for European companies How the EIB supports the sector, including its early investment in BioNTech Why artificial intelligence is set to accelerate drug development, diagnostics and regulatory processes The conversation also looks at why Europe needs a truly European investment ecosystem to help biotech companies grow to global scale — and why this is a sector Europe cannot afford to outsource.

    Invested by Europe: Why Critical Raw Materials Are Key to Europe’s Future

    Critical raw materials are everywhere — in your phone, in solar panels, in wind turbines, and in the batteries that power the energy transition. But where do these materials come from? Why does Europe depend so heavily on them? And how can we build more secure, sustainable, and diversified supply chains?  In this episode of Invested by Europe, Lerato Kotelo, critical raw materials specialist at the European Investment Bank, explains:  What is a critical or strategic raw material Why technologies like batteries, solar panels and wind turbines depend on them How Europe can diversify its supply and reduce dependence on fossil Why recycling and innovation are so important How do new approaches like extracting lithium from geothermal brines work How responsible partnerships with global producers can create win‑win outcomes Lerato also shares insights on Europe’s mining history, today’s rapidly changing extraction technologies, and how innovation is making mining safer, more efficient, and more sustainable.

    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.
