Bruno Liebhaberg, CERRE Founder & Executive Chairman, speaking at the European Forum Alpbach 2025 in Austria during the session ‘What If We Got It Right? Unlocking European Competitiveness Through Better Regulation.’
Delighted to see our founder and Exec. Chair, Bruno Liebhaberg, at #EFA25, in a session on #EUCompetitiveness. His takeaways:
✔️ #BetterRegulation drives progress & innovation
✔️ National interests hinder a stronger Europe
✔️ Deepening the #SingleMarket is key to boost productivity & global impact
🔥 There is limits: not only businesses like EDF +Vattenfall speaking out against the #Deregulation war from @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu lead through #Omnibusses & ignoring even the own #BetterRegulation. But also the official EU watchdog i.e. @ombudsman.europa.eu. See the FT! #EUGreenDeal
