Shaping Europe’s Path: A Fireside with the German Ambassador

What do we hold on to when everything around us shifts? That question shaped much of our conversation with German Ambassador Miguel Berger during a recent fireside chat hosted by Aspen Institute UK.

I was grateful to be part of a thoughtful exchange on how Europe moves forward through investment in future technologies, cross-cultural understanding, and a shared sense of responsibility.

One message stood out: in a changing world, engagement matters-not just in politics, but in how we build, work, and lead.

As someone working at the intersection of engineering and strategy, especially in renewable energy and systems thinking, the conversation reinforced why technical solutions must stay grounded in long-term values and clear objectives.

An inspiring afternoon in a beautiful room, made memorable by a remarkable group.
