Claudia Eckert: „Wir müssen für manche Kooperationen stärkere Kontrollen durchführen“
Die Innovationsberaterin von Kanzler Merz fordert strenge Regeln für Spitzenforscher in sensiblen Technologiefeldern. Nur so hebe Deutschland das Potenzial in der Sicherheitsforschung.
Claudia Eckert, President of the German Academy of Engineering Sciences (Acatech), advises the German government. Her office prepares the "Strategic Circle for Technology and Innovation" convened several times a year under the Federal Chancellor. The panel addresses future issues and attempts to provide solutions. As an engineer, Eckert regularly meets representatives from the defense, research, and digital ministries to promote better collaboration during global crises.
A recent study by Acatech revealed sobering findings: "It's no longer about developing the next warship within the next ten years. It's about becoming faster and more agile." The procurement process for the German Armed Forces is described as a "nightmare," and the defense corporations need to open up. Additionally, universities must also change.
