Review of Economic Theory and Policy (RETP) interviewed Andrea Szalavetz, scientific advisor at the Institute of World Economics, Centre for Economic and Regional Studies, ELTE. Her research focuses on upgrading in global value chains, digital transformation and regional differences in technological development and innovation capabilities. In this interview, we discuss how Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) could transition from a development model dependent on foreign direct investment (FDI) to a more innovation-oriented and resilient trajectory. We also examine the technology and entrepreneurship ecosystem in the region, as well as the impact of developments in the defence industry and industrial policy on future growth.
