D-MTEC Media Update – Investments that promote productivity

D-MTEC experts engage with issues that affect society, the economy and business. The D-MTEC Media Update provides links to recent articles, interviews and commentaries. Isabel Martinez of KOF, proposes investments whose overall contribution to future economic growth is higher than the interest they generate. Ursula Renold, Professor of Education Systems, states that weaker learners find it even more difficult to react flexibly and quickly when working from home.
