Christophe Fouquet, CEO of ASML, Europe's leading technology company, stated on Friday local time that he agrees with most of the proposals put forward by the European Commission this week to enhance Europe's technological autonomy. However, he expressed concerns about the Commission's plan to intervene in guiding or overseeing 'strategic projects' that receive state aid. He believes that such projects should align with the actual needs of the industry and are best proposed autonomously by enterprises to avoid cumbersome processes and the rise of bureaucracy, while fully leveraging the expertise of the private sector.
