Minister: Rich back again - Minister: Investments central
The Minister of Economic Affairs has not attended appointments for a few weeks due to health reasons. What priorities she now wants to set.
German Economy Minister Katherina Reiche has returned to the political scene after a health break and is focusing on Germany as an investment location. She aims to make Germany a hub for investments, not concerns, by reducing costs, cutting bureaucracy, and mobilizing private capital. Reiche plans to promote growth through new technologies, entrepreneurship, and private capital, citing areas like semiconductors, biotechnology, and artificial intelligence.
An investors' conference will be held in October in Berlin, featuring international capital and projects in infrastructure and AI, with Chancellor Friedrich Merz in attendance. Reiche also intends to reform energy policy, lowering costs and adjusting renewable energy expansion to match grid expansion.
