🇺🇸🇪🇺🏛️
Yesterday, we brought policymakers and industry together around one reality: competitiveness, security & resilience now move together. Trade, energy, food systems, defence, manufacturing, finance & tech—focused on practical EU–U.S. coordination. #USAEUTBS

Thank you for having chosen
https://t.co/jd6eQHcER1 on 18/2 for presenting your EEC 2.0 concept. Yes, since 1957 the EC has moved from breaking down economic barriers to regulating, which has often led to erecting new ones instead. Hope to host you again next year! #USAEUTBS

[Rafał Brzoska @RBrzoska]

Przez lata spieraliśmy się: euroentuzjaści kontra eurorealiści. Obie strony się myliły.
18 maja, na konferencji w Brukseli, po raz pierwszy publicznie przedstawiłem koncepcję EWG 2.0. Reakcje utwierdziły mnie w przekonaniu, że czas najwyższy powiedzieć to głośno i wprost.Cieszy mnie to że coraz więcej głosów w przestrzeni publicznej potwierdza, iż jest to dobry pomysł!

Europa, która zaczynała jako projekt prostoty i wolnego rynku, zamieniła się w maszynę do produkcji regulacji. Europejski motyl, zamiast rozwijać skrzydła, owija się w kokon procedur i absurdów.

Czy da się to odwrócić?

W moim felietonie dla @xyz_oficjalnie rozwijam tę ideę i proponuję konkretną odpowiedź, czyli siedem zasad, które mogą przywrócić Europie to, co kiedyś czyniło ją potęgą: odwagę, konkurencyjność i wolność gospodarczą.

Piszę też, dlaczego Polska powinna stanąć na czele tej zmiany i dlaczego tym razem musimy działać ponad podziałami.

Bo jeśli Europa nie odzyska skrzydeł, inni napiszą jej przyszłość za nią, a tym samym będziemy tego ofiarą,a nie beneficjentem.

A big thank you to everyone who joined this truly inspiring transatlantic conversation, great ideas, candid debate, and even stronger discussions continuing in the foyer afterwards. Grateful to Polish & American WE for organising the USA–EU Transatlantic Business Summit. 🇺🇸🇪🇺

🇺🇸🇪🇺🎙️ Fireside chats recap: candid, high-signal conversations on what the transatlantic relationship needs next, competitiveness and speed, Africa’s strategic role, health security, values, and shifting EU–U.S. politics. Thanks to Polish & American WE (organisers). #USAEUTBS

🇺🇸🇪🇺Securing the Backbone — Manufacturing & Critical Raw Materials
Krutz, Brennan, Larsson, Ziemecki Sr., Solle | Mod: Alice Hancock
Takeaway: China’s processing dominance is a strategic vulnerability. Fix: faster permits, finance, invest in mining/refining + EU–U.S. alignment.

Speaker highlight: Oritsemeyiwa Eyesan (NUPRC)
In Climate Commitments & Energy, she stressed: climate ambition must match energy access. “Energy surplus vs energy deficiency—how do you bridge the gap?” The transition isn’t either/or; it’s what’s viable, including gas as a bridge.

[USA-EU Transatlantic Business Summit @usaeusummit]

🇺🇸🇪🇺 Speaker highlight: Rafał Brzoska (@RBrzoska)
His message in the competitiveness/deregulation discussions: Europe doesn’t lack solutions—it’s slow to act. “We need a business approach” to EU transformation. Competitiveness is speed, simplification, and delivery. #USAEUTBS

[USA-EU Transatlantic Business Summit @usaeusummit]

🇺🇸🇪🇺 Speaker highlight: Diana Furchtgott-Roth (EPRINC)
In Climate Commitments & Energy, her message was affordability and reliability: “We all have the same: having affordable, low, reliable energy prices.” High energy costs hit households and competitiveness first. #USAEUTBS

[USA-EU Transatlantic Business Summit @usaeusummit]

🇺🇸🇪🇺 Speaker highlight: Kimberly Reed (@AtlanticCouncil )
Key takeaway from Resetting the Rules/Cutting the Red Tape: competitiveness is pace, “We need to be doing this at business speed.” EU–U.S. alignment will be shaped by execution and outcomes. #USAEUTBS

[USA-EU Transatlantic Business Summit @usaeusummit]

🇺🇸🇪🇺 Speaker highlight: Alex Krutz
Across manufacturing, critical raw materials & energy, his message: “More alignment than disagreement.” Industrial competition is real—scale, subsidies and costs can hollow out industry—so trusted partnerships and coordinated policy are key.

[USA-EU Transatlantic Business Summit @usaeusummit]

🇺🇸🇪🇺🌍 Speaker highlight: Ayo Otuyalo (@PrimeAtlantic Nigeria)
Key message from the fireside on Africa: the continent is central to the emerging order—“survival, security, and the new world order.” EU–U.S. cooperation should treat Africa as a security + economic priority. #USAEU

[USA-EU Transatlantic Business Summit @usaeusummit]

Defense at a Crossroads
Tomasz Szatkowski, Antonio Calcara, Carlo Fidanza, Piero Tozzi | Mod: Thomas Grove.
Takeaway: Europe must move faster—pair innovation with scale, reform procurement, and strengthen burden-sharing. Strategic autonomy should complement NATO, not replace it.

[USA-EU Transatlantic Business Summit @usaeusummit]

🇺🇸🇪🇺🔥 Fireside: U.S. Policy Toward the EU Under President Trump
@NileGardiner (@Heritage ) | Mod: @StefanTompson (Visegrad24).
Themes: sovereignty vs integration, free speech debates, Brussels centralisation, borders/migration, and NATO burden-sharing. #USAEUTBS #EUUS

[USA-EU Transatlantic Business Summit @usaeusummit]
