How should Europe respond to industrial policy from China and the US? What are the key principles behind an effective, green, resilient, and affordable industrial policy? And how do we, as Europe, coordinate industrial policy?

These crucial questions took center stage last Friday at the seminar “European Industrial Policy in a Changing International Order”. Organized by the Institute for Public Economics (IPE), the European Macro Policy Network (EMPN), and the Dutch Ministry of Finance, the event gathered policymakers, academics, and journalists to discuss the future of European industrial strategy.

Professor da Conceição-Heldt joined an esteemed panel to discuss how Europe should respond to industrial policies from China and the United States. The discussion underscored the importance of shaping a sustainable and competitive European industrial policy in a rapidly evolving international landscape.
