Алекс Боди и ръководителят на BlackRock Лари Финк в Берлин: инвестиции в Германия и Румъния?

Румънският предприемач напоследък е чест гост в германската столица Берлин, където пристигна на 20 октомври 2026 г. от Мадрид през Флоренция. Затова не беше случайно, че малко след 9:20 ч., точно навреме, Боди стоеше до частния самолет Embraer Phenom 300E с регистрационен знак CS-PHW, откъдето беше взет с Maybach, за да се отправи бързо към бившата сграда на Държавния съвет като участник в икономическата среща на върха „Invest in Germany Summit“.

Alex Bodi és Larry Fink, a BlackRock vezetője Berlinben: befektetések Németországban és Romániában?

A román vállalkozó mostanában rendszeres vendég Németország fővárosában, Berlinben, ahová 2026. október 20-án Madridból, Firenze érintésével érkezett. Így korántsem volt véletlen, hogy Bodi a tervezett időben, nem sokkal 9 óra 20 perc után már a CS-PHW lajstromjelű Embraer Phenom 300E magánrepülőgép mellett állt. Egy Maybach érkezett érte, hogy az „Invest in Germany Summit” gazdasági csúcstalálkozó résztvevőjeként az egykori Államtanács épületébe siethessen.

In the Moment: Why Global Markets From Plastics to Precious Metals Are Embracing SMX's Technology

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / December 12, 2025 / SMX (NASDAQ:SMX) is not an overnight sensation. For years, it's been building toward the moment that the global supply chain was not yet ready to confront. The idea was simple but disruptive. Materials should not rely on paperwork, declarations, or trust to prove their identity. They should be able to show it themselves with something far more persuasive: PROOF.

Why Materials That Can Prove Their Identity Are Suddenly Essential

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / December 12, 2025 / For decades, global industries kept moving forward on the assumption that supply chains were essentially reliable. The belief was that materials were what suppliers claimed they were, that certifications reflected real practices, and that sustainability metrics could be trusted because companies intended to act responsibly. That belief worked as long as no one looked too closely. Once governments and markets began demanding actual proof, the old system cracked open. Intention was no longer enough.
