How can Europe build technological models that are more resilient, collaborative and aligned with its own strategic interests?

This was one of the key questions explored during ASETT’s recent meetings with Heliot Europe, held as part of a working agenda focused on identifying new opportunities for collaboration in data, artificial intelligence, emerging technologies and industrial resilience.

The visit brought together industrial capabilities, technological expertise and strategic thinking around some of the defining issues for Europe’s economic future: data sovereignty, the industrial application of artificial intelligence, next-generation technological infrastructure, and the need to strengthen the autonomy and resilience of European businesses.

The discussions also explored the potential of new models of cooperation capable of generating shared value through an approach that combines innovation, competitiveness and the principles of the Social Economy.

At ASETT, meetings of this kind reflect the importance of creating spaces where industry, technology, strategic foresight and international cooperation can come together to exchange knowledge and jointly develop solutions to Europe’s most pressing challenges.

Because Europe’s future will depend not only on the technologies it is able to develop, but also on how it chooses to govern them, share them and put them to work for the benefit of people and communities.
