Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Why deep tech matters for Europe’s economy and everyday life
Q: What are the main challenges Europe faces in funding deep tech through long development cycles?
The key issues are securing financing that matches the long timelines, maintaining investor confidence during years or decades of development, and building an ecosystem where European champions can emerge without depending excessively on external funding or markets.
Why deep tech matters for Europe’s economy and everyday life
Q: How would you distinguish deep tech from more conventional tech in practice?
By focusing on solving real-world, persistent problems with a combination of significant science, R&D, and capital investments, and by ensuring that the solution is truly within the technology itself rather than just a business model improvement.
How Cleantech is Driving Europe’s Energy Transition
Q: Can you give us one example of a clean tech project or a company that makes you optimistic, that had a breakthrough and something that you're specifically passionate about?
She highlights several portfolio areas like next-gen heat pumps, novel carbon materials for batteries, and high-performance battery systems, emphasizing that the most inspiring aspect is the founders—their talent, commitment, and the blend of scientific and business conviction.
How Cleantech is Driving Europe’s Energy Transition
Q: Your role in CleanTech Investment here at the EIB, what do you spend your weeks doing?
I explain that the EIC Fund acts as a bridge between early-stage innovation and scale-ups, providing patient capital, co-investment, and active support, including observer seats on boards and helping with fundraising and investor connections.
Why Critical Raw Materials Are Key to Europe’s Future
Q: Where does Europe source these materials and how is the supply being diversified?
Europe has a long-standing mining history in Nordic countries, but diversification involves bringing in supplies from multiple sources, increasing refining capacity in Europe, and fostering recycling to reduce external dependencies.
