Podcast #12: Innovating for the future

The EU’s transition to climate neutrality requires significant efforts from all economic sectors. A key requirement for sectors to move to more sustainable practices is the availability of alternative climate-friendly technologies. Developing these requires innovation and strong investments. How do you create the right conditions for innovation to flourish? What can be improved from our current circumstances? 

To help us better understand the role of innovation in industry decarbonization, we are joined by Viktor Salenius, a researcher at Oxford University who works on innovation and the green transition in energy-intensive industries.
