The real challenge Europe faces is how to turn innovative ideas into scalable industrial capacity, with value chains that go beyond national boundaries and connect European partners more effectively.
European countries should organise procurement, production and industrial cooperation in a way that creates genuinely European capabilities, rather than focusing on national approaches.
Europe needs frameworks that make cooperation easier, reward cross-border industrial integration.
The task is to convert political will into industrial capacity: with better incentives, more joint procurement, more cross-border value chains and the long-term predictability that companies need to invest.
