DeCrises at the 10th INTERNEF - International Energy Forum

On 13 October 2026, the 10th INTERENEF - International Energy Forum brought together representatives of diplomacy, institutions, industry, and academia in Zagreb, Croatia, to discuss and share their experience on the key challenges of today’s global order. Under the slogan "Energy and food sovereignty in an era of deglobalisation", this year’s edition focused on the links between energy, food, and technology, as well as on strengthening the resilience of states and societies. 

During this meeting, Matúš Mišík (UNIBA) joined the panel entitled "Energy, agricultural and food companies and their role in promoting energy and food sovereignty". During this panel, speakers delved into the green transition and its impact on European energy security, industry and households. 

As part of this discussion, Matúš Mišík argued that the EU needs to double down on the green transition in order to respond to the current energy crisis. He highlighted that the green transition will allow the EU to access all the energy it needs and avoid dependence on volatile international energy markets.

Moreover, he explained that focusing on the green transition and innovation will strengthen the EU's position in the global economy, as investments in green innovation will allow the EU to stay competitive even without its own cheap fossil fuels.
