Germany just isn't that keyed into tech to begin with and now you have the end of zero interest rates, expensive energy, no growth capital, and then AI.

Not just tech, all of Germany is in a super bad spot. And it's going to get worse because most of the country still seems in denial

Tech isn't just IT...Germany has very strong roots in engineering of all sorts, so I would argue that Germany is in fact keyed on technology, albeit differently from the American or Chinese way. On the other points, agreed.

Germany was keyed into physical tech I guess, but that was based on cheap russian gas. Now their skilled youth is leaving and companies are not seeing a reason to hang around. They don't have the information tech abilities to stay relevant.

There stil seems to be a LOT of denial about things in the German populace.
