@andyhelbig@magnushambleton@klingefjord 💯🎯. I am sure this will happen eventually, just waiting for that tipping point when the cost of inaction finally exceeds the perceived cost of action for the politicians. Frustratingly; the Ministry of Finance keeps pushing back on NBIM’s sdesire to do privates and VC. 🤷♂️ 🤦♂️
@andyhelbig Spot on. BTW @dealroomco and @Prosusgroup ran some numbers on this and showed how so much of our best talent is still locked up in the old economy. They focused on AI talent, but I’m sure the pattern holds for Eng talent more broadly. Slide 17 here https://t.co/hAR4wOVC4p

This from the FT is a peak example of the European war on dynamism. There’s no social or economic problem that isn’t solved by more tax and more regulation. 🧵
