R&D in Germany

Back to Programme

Context
Few adventure into forecasting the long-term consequences of a near-collapse that started to breed --fueled by speculation and greed-- during the early years of this new century and made the international banking sector look less than reputable.

It looks very differnt when it comes to forecasting the long-term effect of steady investment in research and development. There is even an example of it: Germany.

Twenty years ago Germany did not lack promotors of apocalyptic scenarios, of what the "industrial drain" would do to the country because "of the industry moving away to locations with cheap labour" taking away those good German jobs.

Just the opposite happened. Why? Who really knows, but it is clear that it would not have happened without R&D.

The Presentation
Germany invests in its own people in many ways. Government and the private sector work together in many ways to increase the level of education of people. Why would this be relevant to Mexico, if not only as an example?

Learn from Dr. Friedrich about some striking parallels between Germany and Mexico and how the very tissue of their economy make it easier than what would be assumed to collaborate and reap the benefits mutually.
