Commission foresight report calls for increased spending on research and innovation
More investment in research and innovation is needed to help bridge EU efforts to improve environmental sustainability and digitisation across the bloc, according to the European Commission.
On 29 June, the Commission presented 10 priority areas of action to bring green and digital efforts closer together, including “mobilising additional future-proof investment into new technologies and infrastructures—and particularly into R&I and synergies between human capital and tech”.
