Building Europe daily. Tweeting about science, technology and innovation, regions, ICT, economics of innovation, cities and management.

[Josef Aschbacher @AschbacherJosef]

The European Service Module put on a powerful demonstration of Europe’s capability to deliver critical elements for ambitious international exploration missions. On behalf of @ESA, I would like to sincerely thank all our industrial partners across Europe for their dedication, professionalism and relentless focus on quality.

This success reflects years of close cooperation, engineering excellence and trust between ESA and European industry. In particular, I would like to recognise @AirbusSpace, as prime contractor of this complex and truly pan‑European effort.

Welcome home to the crew!

Το 2024 ήταν ένα όνειρο.
Σήμερα, είναι πραγματικότητα.

Η πρώτη ομάδα 3D Concrete Printing στην Ελλάδα είναι εδώ — εκπαιδευμένη, αφοσιωμένη και έτοιμη να αλλάξει την έννοια της κατασκευής.

Η πρώτη βιομηχανική εγκατάσταση 3DCP στη χώρα είναι πλήρως λειτουργική.

Η Ελλάδα μπαίνει στην εποχή του Construction 4.0.
Αυτό είναι μόνο η αρχή. 👀

Bravo to Greece. To think that some know-nothings used to argue that Greece would be better off out of the euro

[Andrés Rodríguez-Pose @rodriguez_pose]

Place matters, but it is not the whole story.
Firms in weaker regions innovate more if they benefit from psychological openness & if they are equipped to absorb & use new knowledge, as Grillitsch, @sam_tavassoli & @MartinObschonka argue in Research Policy. https://t.co/IFFq0MFCnr

[The Greek Analyst @GreekAnalyst]

Despite projecting a global slowdown, the IMF forecasts Greece’s growth at 2% for 2025, still higher than most advanced economies in Europe and beyond.

[The Greek Analyst @GreekAnalyst]

If EVERYTHING goes well (which is highly unlikely but not impossible), current trend shows Greece going below 100% of debt as % of GDP within the decade.

Anything even remotely close to that would be an unprecedented success.

[EU Science & Innovation 🇪🇺 @EUScienceInnov]

🇬🇷 Happy National Day, Greece!

Did you know that Greece’s innovation performance has grown faster than the EU average since 2017? Greece stands out in product & process innovation - key to creating new markets & boosting competitiveness!

According to Apple CEO Tim Cook, China’s manufacturing advantage isn’t cheap labor: it’s “tooling” and “vocational expertise“.

New study on Greek #regions by Psycharis, Tselios & Pantazis in ARS (@theWRSA) reveals that while #EU cohesion policy aims to reduce disparities, it often widens income #inequality.
Time for a better targeted, inclusive & more place-based #Cohesion policy.

Early adoption of artificial intelligence (#AI) gives a huge advantage to pioneering places. Firms in early-AI adopting #regions benefit from this.
In the #Netherlands, AI concentrates in big cities and peripheral regions are not catching up, says @hjrouwendal at #GeoInno2024

[Andrés Rodríguez-Pose @rodriguez_pose]

In the #EU, economic activity has become concentrated in large #cities. Many #regions, in contrast, are falling into #DevelopmentTraps.
These are traps from which, in contrast to other parts of the world, escaping is challenging.
