                                                                          The climate crisis, growing populations, ageing societies and dwindling resources are prompting us to transform the way we live, learn, work and produce. Innovation and technology are crucial to this transformation. Innovation is also key to economic growth and employment. It has spurred about two-thirds of Europe’s economic growth in recent decades. Emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, quantum computing and advanced manufacturing will have a profound impact on the economy and employment. This publication gives an overview of the European Investment Bank’s contribution in the area of innovation. The stories, videos and case studies illustrate how the Bank’s financing and advice support countries, regions and cities.
