Débat riche et nécessaire à Paris avec le @MartensCentre sur démographie, migrations et sécurité.

Europe needs a demographic strategy, not just migration management. Crucial for sustaining our model.

If we act we shape the future, if we delay demography will shape it for us.

[Martens Centre ON THE GO @WMCESProjects]

From access to finance and talent, to reducing regulatory burdens and boosting innovation, the discussions made one thing clear: if Europe wants to stay competitive globally, it must become the best place for its start-ups to grow, invest, and thrive.

Yesterday in #Vienna, together with our Member Foundation @PolAkademie #CampusTivoli, we hosted a conference on EU #competitiveness and the need to build a truly supportive framework for European start-ups to scale up here in Europe — not abroad.

Europe is getting older, smaller, and more unequal – what does that mean for our future?
Together with @PolAkademie, we held a closed conference in Vienna to discuss demographic trends, labour markets, and the sustainability of our social model.
