Panel discussion -European competitiveness

On February 17, 2025, a top-class panel discussion on the subject of “European competitiveness” took place at the Vienna University of Economics and Business. The event was jointly organized by &'EcoAustria, the Department of Economics WU (University of Economics Vienna) and the Uniwersytet Warszawski / University of Warsaw organized and brought together experts from science, politics and business.
