Europe is aggressively pursuing a green energy transition, but the financial challenge is steep. To meet its ambitious energy objectives, Europe is increasingly partnering with players from the Chinese mainland, whose investments are seen as a vital source of advanced technology and capital.
Denis Depoux, global managing director at Roland Berger, recently explained that such investments are welcome in Europe when they bring technology transfer and create jobs. He recalled how, 20-30 years ago, European companies journeyed to the Chinese mainland in search of industrial growth and technological know‐how. Today, the roles have reversed: investments from the Chinese mainland are now playing a crucial role in bolstering Europe’s competitiveness on the green transition front.
This evolving economic exchange not only provides the necessary equipment and know‐how for a sustainable future but also reinforces a model of cross-border cooperation that benefits everyone—from tech enthusiasts and young global citizens to thought leaders and changemakers. As both regions continue to share expertise and invest in each other’s growth, the path to a greener and more innovative future becomes clearer for all.
