Excelling at creating paperwork... except now digitally. AUTOSAR is may favorite German software innovation. /s
That's the curse in Europe. Every European country has it's own ministry of digital innovation who's role is the grift of allocating taxpayer money to the right politically connected pockets while pretending to do innovation. Case in point, German fiber optic infrastructure is still lightyears behind Romania despite much higher costs. Means, somebody in Germany is making good money form that, even if there's nothing to show for.
Meanwhile the actuality innovative companies in Europe get real VC money from the US, then get incorporated in the US and become American companies, then EU has the audacity to complain about lacking tech sovereignty.
- tommica 2y agoYep, had a coworker who was looking for financing in a EU country, but very few investor options were available, and mostly for a low amount of money, only enough for a few months. He had to go to UK to find people with deep enough pockets.

It was not related with the ISP internet subscription of course. Any negotiations or questions were responded with "IT'S KABELGEBÜHR YOU HAVE TO PAY IT".
