Demands of the climate tech ecosystem for European policymakers<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Europe is at a crossroads: the continent’s economic strength and resilience have been increasingly challenged in recent years. The European Union (EU) must now come up with a clear strategy and smart measures to respond to these challenges. Smart economic policies, market-oriented mechanisms<\/strong> and strategic investments in climate technologies<\/strong> are the key to new economic growth<\/strong>, but also crucial for securing a sustainable future<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 2024 European elections<\/strong> will take place from June 6-9 and the political priorities will be readjusted. The climate tech sector<\/strong>, driven by innovation and entrepreneurship, acts as an engine for new, climate-friendly growth<\/strong> and job creation<\/strong>. In addition, their technologies reduce energy costs and secure the future prosperity<\/strong> of the European economy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To make a long story short: Support for climate technologies should be a key issue in the EU elections and in the coming legislature.<\/strong> As Tech for Net Zero, we formulate concrete demands<\/strong><\/strong> and proposals for action<\/strong> for European policy with our EU Climate Tech Manifesto<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201eWith its strong research<\/strong> and talented founders<\/strong>, Europe is destined to be the global leader in developing breakthrough climate technologies and thus gaining new economic strength and sovereignty<\/strong>. The next five years are crucial<\/strong> for this, the EU must finally deliver and address the lack of climate tech funding<\/strong> as well as provide suitable framework conditions<\/strong>. As Tech for Net Zero, we support policymakers to jointly develop solutions with the climate tech ecosystem.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
