The world has grown complex. Globalisation has deepened social, economic and cultural interdependence, creating entanglements that can tighten into true Gordian knots.
Public authorities face growing challenges and increasingly struggle to decide.
In this unprecedented context, the philosopher offers guidance: “What could be more liberating than learning to embrace uncertainty?“.
Innovation is the path that will lead us there. It will shape the industrial strength of tomorrow, drive a new industrial momentum, and revive the energy of growth.
So let us accept uncertainty – and commit ourselves. Individual and collective engagement will multiply initiatives and unleash the creative chaos from which solutions emerge.
Public power can sustain innovation and encourage initiative.
So, Presidents, let us not sacrifice innovation on the altar of budgetary restraint. Let us draw today the contours of the industry of tomorrow.
Let us continue to invest in the future – for the good of all, for the harmony of life.
