New tariffs come at a time when economies are grappling with structural transformations in demographics and energy, and amidst increasing security spending needs. Export markets are shrinking, uncertainty is undermining firms’ willingness to innovate, and public expenditure needs are rising. Without a turnaround in growth, Europe’s ability to deliver on its social welfare promises is in jeopardy. If European policymakers were to seize the moment, the region’s growth potential and resilience to shocks could rise substantially.

World Economic Forum Video: How pro basketball and theoretical physics shaped one health tech CEO
Non-communicable diseases like stroke and heart disease have swapped spots with infectious diseases as top global killers. Improving health access - whether in the developed or emerging world -- can save the lives of billions. CEO Bernd Montag explains how Siemens Healthineers is partnering with providers around the world to deliver technologies and help reduce the complexities that can stand in the way of efficient treatment. He’ll also share his own unique background - as a professional basketball player and later theoretical physicist - and how it shaped how he makes decisions and leads.
This interview was recorded January 2025 at the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting in Davos, Switzerland.
