“We all need to invest, and we all need to be part of it. It does need to be well-orchestrated and coordinated.

The [public investment] model in Germany is something we’re testing. We’re a test bed and happy to share our findings with the world.

It’s a behemoth task, and we’ll be tackling it as long as we use software.” 3/3

"The technologies the Sovereign Tech Fund invests in are global, they are built all across the world. They are a global resource we all need. In one way, it’s quite similar to climate: we all need to care about it.

We all need to invest — there’s a lot of work to be done, and there need to be more actors, not less. It’s not a question of whether industries, the public sector, private sector, and foundations should invest. Yes, definitely.” 2/3 #OSSEU #OSSummit #OSSEU2024
