Summit Special: To Lead or Not To Lead?
To Lead or Not To Lead?
Special episode: Cleantech for Europe Summit 2025

One year into a new political mandate, the EU stands at a crossroads. Plagued by high energy costs, fragmented markets and Chinese overcapacity, European industry seems locked in a downward spiral. Yet at the same time, Europe has a once-in-a-generation opportunity to become a clean industrial leader. In this special episode of Time to Scale, we bring you some of the hottest takes from our annual Cleantech for Europe Summit, which gathered political and cleantech leaders earlier this month in Brussels.
