".
Mr President, it is excellent that, despite earlier doubts, we now have the opportunity for constructive comments to be made in Parliament on the subject of the establishment of a European Institute of Technology. I would very much like this initiative to be a truly European one.
I think we should place emphasis on the principle of an even geographical distribution of the Knowledge and Information Communities. We should try to ensure that European funding of this project is a priority for a number of reasons, not least the weakness of patent protection in Europe. We will not be able to shift this burden onto private business.
Europe needs this institution. The best evidence of this is the lively response from businesspeople, local authorities and the scientific community in Lower Silesia. Before the legislative procedure for this has been completed, we already have a specially set up company, EIT+, we have a willingness to involve structural funds, we have letters of intent from the largest businesses in Lower Silesia, and we also have 35 000 signatures of people who live in Lower Silesia, who are calling for the Institute or institutions forming part of it to be located in Wrocław."@en1
