Doesn't really count if you have to google it first to know what it is, that's not what will save the European economy in the future. In the mean time other regions of the world dominate battery technology, battery-electric vehicles, handheld devices, social media, semiconductor technology, quantum computing, and basically the whole internet

You keep using your phone, and ignoring what tech allows all modern computers to exist. Tech isn't a major industry, right?

And Europe is not dominating that industry

Just the foundation it's build upon

[-] friendlymessage@feddit.org 0 points 1 month ago

The foundation doesn't create jobs

It does, about 42000 of them just in the patent holding company alone
