As part of the #TRIREME project on skills in the mobility ecosystem, industriAll Europe and Ceemet - European Tech & Industry Employers have examined the context in which social partners operate. The corresponding report draws on work from the EU transition pathway for the mobility ecosystem, sectoral social dialogue initiatives, and broader social partner projects within the automotive industry. 🚗🚗 The green and digital transformation of the automotive industry requires robust #socialdialogue and #collectivebargaining to ensure a socially sustainable transition. As the industry evolves due to globalisation, digitalisation, automation, and regulatory changes, addressing skills and retraining needs is vital to avoid the loss of quality jobs across #Europe. https://lnkd.in/eawEfeHH

🤲 Collaborating to compete, shaping Europe's Future 🥊 What happens when competitors unite for a shared purpose? Progress. Last week, the Club IPA, a network of leading Investment Promotion Agencies, gathered in Zurich to share insights, tackle challenges, and shape the future of FDI, innovation, and impact. Despite being competitors, we’re also strong partners—united by a shared mission to help businesses expand to Europe with confidence. This year’s CEO meeting, hosted by the Greater Zurich Area, was especially meaningful as we welcomed Invest in Gothenburg / Business Region Göteborg AB to the alliance and reflected on the Choose Europe initiative, a testament to the power of regional collaboration. “Europe thrives when we collaborate. It’s not just about opening doors—it’s about creating a shared ecosystem where innovation and sustainability are second nature,” said Lukas Huber, a founding member of Club IPA. We also celebrated the legacy of Johanna Huurre and Sonja Wollkopf Walt, who are moving on to new adventures but leave a lasting imprint on our network. A special thanks to Sabine Müller ✨and Lukas Huber for organizing our gathering, Tracy Trachsler of the DFINITY Foundation for having us at their office and to Anna Schindler for sharing Zurich’s strategic vision for sustainable urban innovation and quality of life in a growing city. A final thanks to Maurice Messinger for beautifully capturing the essence of the day. Collaboration is what makes Europe thrive. #ChooseEurope #Collaboration #FDI #Innovation Choose Europe Members - ADERLY / Invest in Lyon Agency I amsterdam Berlin Partner für Wirtschaft und Technologie GmbH Business Region Göteborg AB Invest in Gothenburg Catalonia Trade & Investment Choose Paris Region Business Riga Copenhagen Capacity FrankfurtRheinMain GmbH International Marketing of the Region Greater Zurich Area Helsinki Partners Stockholm Business Region Oslo Business Region Wirtschaftsagentur Wien Grow with Warsaw

Guess what? We’re still celebrating 𝐆𝐞𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐲’𝐬 𝐆𝐥𝐨𝐛𝐚𝐥 𝐃𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟒! 🎉🎉🎉 __Today we are focusing on our 𝐌𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐖𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐬. When considering #diversity, the German Mittelstand does not come to mind immediately. But is this entirely fair? Yes and No. __💡 𝐘𝐞𝐬, because the German Mittelstand falls behind startups, scale-ups, and corporates, with an average Global Diversity score of 33 out of 100 (learn more here: https://lnkd.in/dhzD2vbw). Our experience shows that the Mittelstand faces challenges in adopting international hiring practices, starting with translating contracts into English. The predominance of the German language 🇩🇪, while understandable particularly in certain industries, is undeniably a significant barrier to hiring international talent. __💡 𝐍𝐨, because there's a noticeable shift within the German Mittelstand. Now, more than ever, driven by a shortage of skilled labor, companies recognize the necessity to adapt and open their doors to international talent if they wish to remain competitive. ALDI SÜD, Metro Inc., TRUMPF, and Vaillant Group are leading here. We at Imagine call all Mittelstand companies to reach out to us. We're here to be your partner when it comes to international hiring! 🤝 But now, Congrats to all Mittelstand category Winners who will pave the way for more to come: KWS Group Oldendorff Carriers GmbH & Co.

In the frame of the Project TRIREME on skills in the mobility ecosystem, Ceemet - European Tech & Industry Employers and industriAll Europe have recently published the first desk research report in which they examine the social dimension of the transformation of the automotive industry. The main assumption is that a strong social dialogue – at all appropriate levels – is key to ensure a socially sustainable twin transition. Furthermore, as the industry evolves due to globalisation, digitalisation, automation, and regulatory changes, addressing skills and retraining needs is vital. As part of the project, industriAll Europe and Ceemet have examined the context in which social partners operate. They have collected examples of good practices at various levels—European, national, sectoral, regional, and company—demonstrating how social partners are engaged in managing the transformation. For Delphine Rudelli, Director General of Ceemet, “social partners at all levels have a critical role in anticipating and managing skills needs and organising continuous training in the automotive-mobility sector. Companies, particularly SMEs, need support to make the twin transition a reality, especially regarding deploying right-skilling initiatives adapted to labour market needs and workforce skill sets. However, the pace of implementation varies across countries. Therefore, streamlining access to funding, increasing companies’ involvement in designing (re)training policies, and developing the appropriate policy framework at the national level where necessary are crucial to ensure an effective, smooth, and rapid transition across all EU Member States.” #Trireme #upskilling #socialdialogue #mobilityecosystem Read the desk research and press release here:https://lnkd.in/eHRzU9kJ

We’re not here to follow the beat. We’re here to set it.   Since the beginning of this year, I’ve been ‘on tour’ visiting Allianz Technology colleagues across Spain, Italy, India, Thailand, the US, Switzerland, Germany, Austria and France with our Executive Management team. Our playlist? Listen, exchange, learn – on repeat. Because our people know best how to play their instruments; they are the driving force behind our transformation and the key to unlocking the next level of our amazing organization.   The next stage we want to perform on is sustainable transformation and growth, with our strategy as the rhythm for innovation and continuous customer value creation. We’re in tune to win IT, and we’re doing it by transforming how we think, work, jam, and innovate:   ➡️ End-to-end customer experience ownership – we’re the maestros; we’re not just enabling IT but inventing future-proof solutions, setting trends & amplifying emerging technologies ➡️ Fast, efficient, customer-focused mindset – agility isn’t just how we work; it’s how we play in sync ➡️ People at the core – upskilling our colleagues ensures we stay ahead of the pulse, because their growth is our competitive edge ➡️ Global, harmonized tools & processes – scaling solutions worldwide from one, solid foundation while delivering quality, stability, & value   Innovation isn’t just chasing the newest, sexiest tech. It’s also about finding smarter ways to remix what works, solve problems, and deliver real, lasting value. And, it’s not a solo act. It’s a symphony – open, collaborative, and networked: our Innovation Hub in India will be the first to launch, followed by hubs in Munich and the US.   This is our next level, our crescendo, and I’m happy to say we’re composing and shaping it together. Thank you, Team Allianz Technology, for your hospitality so far this year – YOU are rocking IT! 🎸🚀 #AllianzTechnology #IT #Innovation #Transformation #Strategy #LetsRockIT Nicola Bosisio Aline Bonaccorso Fabrizio Salvatore Jordi Balcells Alexander Heinrich Dr. Axel Schell Marius Eugler Iain Briggs Gülay Stelzmüllner Gerard Esparducer Samira Aidouni Laurent Cabrit Jayant Tulsiani Jihan Nadri Tony Skipper Marco Baumgartner Thomas Baach Philippe Thibault
