The Lisbon Agenda 2000 resolved to make Europe the world’s most competitive and dynamic knowledge-based economy within ten years. However, the EU still continues to lag behind the US and Japan. I welcome this report, which attempts to improve the EU’s performance in three main areas.
Firstly, through financing and encouraging the creation of new knowledge: this will be facilitated through promoting the spirit of entrepreneurship, providing lifelong learning and ICT training and improving the image of scientific research as a rewarding career path.
Secondly, Europe is failing to share its knowledge. Human resources must be used in an efficient way and improving partnerships must remain at the forefront of European R[amp]D policy-making. Resources must now be focused upon ensuring that the brightest minds are provided with adequate cross-border capital and human resources. Furthermore, organisations who continue to treat women as inferior workers should be named and shamed.
Thirdly, Europe is failing to finance knowledge. It is essential that a large proportion of EU budget resources for financial instruments are aimed at enhancing SME finance and tackling market failures.
Europe must now recognise its faults so that it can fulfil the aims of the Lisbon Agenda."@en1
