"Mr President, science and technology are our real chances to get with the global competition. For many centuries, our continent has been the centre of scientific and technological development, and European science has always been international. There has been an intensive exchange of ideas and visits by scientists, even in the times of the Iron Curtain, and the scientific community is almost borderless these days.
Setting up the European Institute of Innovation and Technology is an important step to keep on with this ancient tradition of our continent. I highly welcome it and, of course, I welcome the excellent report by my colleague Mr Paasilinna.
On behalf of my Government, nation and scientists, I offer Budapest as a seat for the EIT headquarters. Our achievements in life sciences, in the combat against climate change and in environmental studies are the best arguments. But my home city, Budapest, could provide a pleasant and exciting atmosphere as well."@en1
