Dr. Rainer Dulger, Employer's President
I want this country to remain successful, innovative and prosperous.
And to achieve this, politicians must finally focus on Germany as a business location and our competitiveness.
BDA Newsletter 18/26:
Growth Begins in the Classroom
In his foreword, Employers' President Rainer Dulger explains why education is far more than a social responsibility and why it is essential for growth, innovation and competitiveness. The Topic of the Week highlights why Europe must place a stronger focus on economic dynamism and what conditions are needed to achieve this. What We Need to Talk About explores the potential of the next generation of entrepreneurs and explains why better framework conditions will be crucial to tomorrow’s economic success.
