  1. L’Europa ha le idee, i talenti e i risparmi: quello che continua a mancare è il capitale necessario per trasformare le imprese innovative in grandi protagonisti globali.

    Nel 2025 gli investimenti in capitale di rischio in Europa hanno raggiunto circa 66 miliardi di euro, contro oltre 339 miliardi di dollari negli Stati Uniti. E non perché agli europei manchino le risorse: circa 10.000 MILIARDI di euro di risparmi delle famiglie dell’Unione sono ancora detenuti in depositi bancari.

    Il problema è che troppo poco di quel capitale arriva alle imprese ad alta crescita. E così l’Europa finanzia ricerca, forma talenti e fa nascere innovazione, ma spesso sono capitali stranieri a sostenerne la crescita e a raccoglierne poi i frutti.

    Per questo Volt vuole una vera Unione dei risparmi e degli investimenti: mercati più integrati, garanzie pubbliche mirate e un ruolo maggiore dei fondi pensione nel capitale di rischio europeo.

    L’autonomia economica europea passa anche da qui: dare alle nostre imprese i capitali per crescere in Europa, invece di continuare a produrre innovazione che altri trasformano in potere economico.

  2. AI Is Failing At An Overwhelming Majority of Companies Using It, MIT Study Finds

    Getty / Futurism With AI software increasingly hogging the enterprise spotlight, companies and investors are spending like never before. In the first half of 2025, AI startups raised over $44 billion, more than all of 2024 combined.

In the US at least, investors have essentially bet the farm on the idea […]

  5. The #EU #omnibus chugs along, copying it's way to success from #US #PrivateEquity and #VentureCapital.

    In short; they want you to eat gruel. They want high yields, low nutrition and genetic damage for your family line.

    It's basically the new #aristocracy telling you that your standards of living has to decrease so that they can line their coffers.

  9. Heidi Health just closed a $65M Series B led by Steve Cohen's Point72. Proof that even in 2025, 'healthcare' + 'tech' still equals 'massive investment.' Is this the future, or just a really expensive band-aid? What problems do you wish health tech would *actually* solve?
