shaping the pears air show. and production of climate fairly heat pumps is more than heating up across europe. and that has benefits for countries like poland and slovakia seem barely in berlin. welcome to our show, and we begin here in germany. we're us based chip maker intel assigned off on plans to invest 30000000000 euros in the country as part of a new chip production facility. of a deal for a factory in the city of monta bar includes $10000000000.00 euros and german sudden subsidies entail is the latest ship makers to take advantage of the east east funding rules for producers of the critical components as your aims for more independence, from asian manufacturers entails also planning new facilities in poland and france but well, germany is celebrating entails big investment. the past year has seen more and more questions arise, to the countries general attractiveness for investment, both domestic and foreign. and that's the problem for all of europe. after all, germany, france and italy account for more than half of the blocks overall economic output,

where it's gross domestic product in germany hold the largest piece of that pie. and much of the country standing is thinks it's innovativeness over decades, even centuries in particular, and areas like machinery, automobiles and manufacturing. a germany sees its future as more digital and green . but competing globally is difficult, and the higher energy prices of the past year have not helped a new study released by the z. e. w institute now shows that with the u. s. canada in sweden, leaving the list of countries most attractive for business. germany is at 18th, or if i'm on this, i'm joined by jo kramer. his chief economist come out spunk in germany. your thanks for joining us. we know that germany has been worried for awhile, about it's attractiveness in a globalized world. this year has been especially difficult, is it just mentioned, especially with the war with the energy prices a deal like intel is a big deal in the figurative sense of the word. does it tell us what we need to

know about germany's attractiveness? no, i think the same we contact the industry is a special kind of industry. we're a subsidies are i use it. but i think when you would like to learn more about that, just the general attractiveness of germany. they look at all of the other firms. then also look not only at energy issues, what we have been seeing based on indicators over the past 15 years is in general erosion in the quality of germany as a location to do business. this has to be and this has to do with the back roads re vase high corporate, texas, and rucker see the problems when it comes to digital infrastructure. and these things need to be fixed, right. those investments that perhaps haven't been made in the past. do you see the state showing out more money for them now in a sense,

jeremy is competing with the deep pockets of the us on the one side, china on the other. can we expect to see more subsidies to encourage businesses as well? uh, we are likely to see more subsidies. uh because there was a change in the policy of the opinion, but i'm not sure whether subsidies are the right way also for china all the us because subsidies say that this taught the competition. they all lead to inefficiencies and that we see that you cannot make problems trying to contract has in the end we have seen that that the drum and the economic american, the economic rise of them, the author, the 2nd floor for all of this was primarily achieved by not creating favorable conditions for a few of firms, but to create good frame, but conditions for all the firms. with good uh, roads, uh, re weighs good, screw its infrastructure load, texas. you said it had to. and i think this is

a better way to bid up a broad industrial base. right. that's your kramer with cool. that's fine. thank you very much. thank you. well, military and civilian aircraft streaked across the straw across the sky, rather as the pears air shall return. monday, following a 4 year cobit induced high aid us organizers and build the by any event as the recovery air show. after the grotto virus ravaged the sector and the event was cancelled in 2021. this year's air show has new focus on defense, of course, following brushes, invasion of ukraine, along with the industry's efforts to reduce its carbon footprint. a fridge president, manuel nicole and arrived in a helicopter partly using sustainable aviation fuel. you know, so france will invest 300000000000 euros to boost the production of those fuels. right, a correspond to jack product is outside of paris for that air show. jack french

says, now that it's ready to plough millions of yours into sustainable aircraft from engines to fuels. what exactly is behind this? pushed by the com but it's a really interesting one, steve. and essentially he's kind of catching up with the industry in some sense that the aerospace industry is agreed to go. cobra neutral by 2050. there's a huge push, probably the companies within the industry. but they've long said that what they need is government support. so am i calling to 9 same as 300000000 yours a year specifically? well, mainly related to the sustainable fuse is being really welcomed by some of the people that i've been speaking to. and some of the stalls of the show ready is the 1st day, but some of the stalls of the 7, the, the sons of the getting a lot of attraction. all the ones related to that. it's expected that there's going to be a hydrogen powered supersonic plane flying in the skies within the next couple of years. and that company has been receiving quite a lot of a lot of attention to and is doing multiple multiple sort of shows and displays

throughout the day. but that was, it was so as you say, a big focus on defense which has been highlighted by the board and ukraine. we know that right now and here now the passenger air industry is doing better and better getting over that corona. and especially as summer approaches is fair to say that sustainability isn't really the chief concern of many of these businesses right now is they try and meet demand that's one of the big things. the companies are saying that they're having huge amounts of orders, especially the big ones, the boeing's and the ad buses that are trying to bear with more planes. essentially, i noticed they've been saying that they expect a deal was for, for 2100, a croft could be signed during this week. a written, the boy is a power size shape. and that is really significant. that's a high number of that across to be ordered. but that means huge pressure they'll have to deliver and that's where the industry is really focused in some sense as well. all right,
