The parade showcased France's rearmament efforts and Europe's push for strategic autonomy. The event was designed to send a message of European unity and readiness to both Russia's Vladimir Putin and the United States.

EU launches €5 bn fund to stop tech giants from fleeing to the US

Europe's problem is not a lack of innovation but an inability to scale companies, argue EU Commissioner Ekaterina Zachariewa and Novo Holdings CEO Kasim Kutay. A new €5 billion EU fund, described as the largest such instrument in history, aims to keep promising European startups from relocating to the US in search of capital. The goal is to create the conditions for homegrown tech giants to emerge and grow on the continent.

Will the EU's €5 bn fund be enough to stop European startups from moving to the US?

Rents rise ahead of summer but Gdańsk still cheaper than a year ago

June brought rental price increases across almost all of Poland, according to Otodom Analytics data. The seasonal shift of properties to short-term holiday lets in the Tricity area immediately pushed up asking prices. Despite this, rental listings in Gdańsk remain lower than both one and two years ago.

Should short-term rentals be more strictly regulated to stabilise long-term rental prices?

Sliced fruit placed in the garden keeps slugs away from vegetable beds

Slugs can be lured away from vegetable beds by placing slices of citrus fruit — such as grapefruit or orange — around the garden. The method is cheap, simple and requires no chemical pesticides. Slugs attracted by the scent gather around the fruit, leaving crops undisturbed.

Are natural slug-deterrent methods as effective as chemical pesticides?
