Show Notes
We invite to listen to the discussions recorded during the Warsaw European Conversation, an annual conference by Polityka Insight and the European Council on Foreign Relations. In five episodes we discuss Europe’s readiness for war, digital sovereignty, the competitiveness of the EU economies, European elections and energy policy.
What does Europe’s technological sovereignty mean in practice? What challenges does the regulation of the digital economy entail? In two discussions we will address the role of regulation in building European technological autonomy and the ways in which Europe should invest in the development of artificial intelligence – from energy and computing power to AI models – to remain competitive and innovative. Our guests are José Ignacio Torreblanca, Senior Advisor and Distinguished Policy Fellow at the ECFR, and Murielle Popa-Fabre, Senior Advisor on Technology and Policy at the AI & Society Institute at the École Normale Supérieure in Paris. The episode is hosted by Jan Jęcz, Digital Economy Analyst. Enjoy the podcast!
