This video synthesizes my additions during a European Commission panel discussion on Higher Ed and Business collaboration. The panel was part of an EC Summit on Education and Innovation (see https://education.ec.europa.eu/event/education-and-innovation-summit ). The moderator Terry frames the question, ... and in the segments, I answer. It was not only a highly professional panel, we also laughed at situations and our energies. The resulting report included the focus points I mentioned, as well as those from my co-speakers.  
My responses during the panel and taken up in the report referred to
- the importance of Human Capital for Innovation, 
- the importance of Change as a meta-skill for innovation driven students, 
- decreasing the workload of both teachers and students to increase creativity in innovation, 
- why we need to cope with constant change, 
- the impact of strategic partnerships on social change, and a response to a statement "university education is ineffective, we need something else".  During the first European Commission's Summit on Education and Innovation, I had the pleasure of speaking in a panel focusing on Higher Education and Business Collaboration. The panel was moderated by Terry Maguire, and my fellow speakers were: 
- Tim Houter ‐ Co-founder at Hardt Hyperloop.
- Fidel Rodríguez Batalla ‐ Vice Minister of Universities, Science and Innovation. Regional Government of Madrid Región (Comunidad de Madrid).
- Todd Davey ‐ Associated Professor for Entrepreneurship at the Institut MinesTélécom Business School Paris, Associate Partner at the University Industry Innovation Network, European University E³UDRES²
