14 September 2026
12.30 pm to 14.30 pm
German Economic Institute Brussels Liaison Office, Rue Marie de Bourgogne 58, 1000 Brussels
Roundtable
The event will present the findings of a new study conducted by IW Consult on behalf of eco with the support of AWS. Based on a survey of 500 companies, around 80 AI start-ups, and an analysis of 55 million online job advertisements, the study explores how German companies are combining AI foundation models with industrial expertise and proprietary data to drive innovation, competitiveness, and economic growth.
The presentation will be followed by an interactive roundtable discussion with representatives from industry, policymakers, and the Brussels stakeholder community, focusing on the implications of the findings for Europe's industrial and digital policy agenda.
We would be delighted to welcome you in Brussels and kindly ask you to let us know whether you will be able to attend.
