The Industrial Policy (IP) is crucial for fostering cooperation between public and private sectors on key strategic issues, such as climate change, energy efficiency, and social equity. Our goal is to create favorable conditions for European industries to develop high-quality, sustainable jobs while addressing the challenges of globalization and the EU Single Market. We advocate for eco-efficient technologies, waste management, and socially accepted production processes, emphasizing the need for sectoral initiatives and effective governance to achieve a sustainable and inclusive industrial strategy.
