Abstract:
The Master thesis will try to investigate the sustainability concept in the European Union framework and its relationship with innovation. Innovation will be a key determinant to foster sustainable growth for the future of Europe and keep European competitiveness.
Two main research questions have been identified:

• Find and understand the potential limits of the European Green Deal, Horizon 2020, and Horizon Europe;
• Understand what types of innovations and based on what it is plausible to expect in the next years;
• What type of industries will drive the supposed sustainable innovation in Europe;
