    EU has been for a long time investing in innovation

    Small copies of existing technologies aren’t novelty nor innovation.

    while there are plenty EU supported and developed alternatives they are not used.

    Exactly why novelty and innovation is needed, instead of imitation. No need to move buyers from the original to the alternative, if you’re the original.

    Tech companies, and the EU today imports 80% of its digital technology. In September 2024, the Draghi Report issued a stark warning to bloc leaders, (…) Strong measures from the White House in retaliation for European antitrust and regulatory enforcement might just give this process additional impetus. President Trump cannot make European tech great again, because it never was great. But his policies may unintentionally help make it so.

    Doubt it. EU is a centrally planned economy, which is antithetical to innovation. The mechanisms they employ (high taxes on every company, then subsidies for select large employers with established lobbying interest), makes sure that novel ideas are better of elsewhere.

    We’ve always shown preference for a slowed decline, rather than having to adapt to a changing world.
