Meet me, Joern Soyke, at the EU Innovation Summit in Austin, where I'll be a part of the EU Innovation Panel. This event, hosted by the Global Accelerator for Technology Exchange, is set to revolutionize the tech industry. It's not about competition; it's about fostering inclusivity and driving positive change. Join us as we discuss how to bridge cultural divides and promote sustainable innovation. Imagine a world where knowledge knows no boundaries, where young minds collaborate across continents to shape a better future. That's the vision driving this summit. Let's come together to exchange ideas, forge partnerships, and build a brighter tomorrow. See you there! #EUInnovationSummit #TechForGood #GlobalCollaboration #Sustainability

With $3tn in value created, European tech is just getting started. At our last Pulse Conference, we discussed how maturing ecosystems, increased global attention, and a growing ambition to build globally competitive companies puts Europe in prime position to rival Silicon Valley.

We, at European Data Compliance Network EUDCN, following closely the launch of the European Tech Alliance's Manifesto for 2030 Europe's future digital policy. In the comments there are links to today's launch event and to the EUTA's Manifesto itself Victoria de Posson Nathalie Laneret #EUTechManifesto #future #eudigitalpolicy

Today gathering insights and inspiration from the #buildingthefuture conference and the tech industry in Lisbon. Inspiring speakers as @Pierluigi Collina on Thinking Forward in an industry that moves hearts!

Japan is forward thinking, and maybe not in the way most people usually think! Last night we were joined at #AgTechWeekFargo by over 10 delegates form Japan looking at innovations in #agtech. Japan is working to solve many of the same challenges in agriculture we are in America: workforce, efficiency, resource management... This group, led by JETRO - Japan External Trade Organization and North Dakota Trade Office. They brought startups, corporations, and investors to Fargo to engage in AgTech week. So why are they forward thinking? Japan invests heavily in relationship. Regularly traveling to learn more about the successes of others. They have many of the same challenges, but they couch this discussion in recognizing uniqueness, partnership, and collaboration. Many people organizations and communities jump to transaction, while my interactions with Japan have exemplified Go-Giving of time and energy. Looking forward to partnership and collaboration into the future! PS. Strong appreciation for Drew Combs and Lindsey Warner for their leadership and helping Grand Farm build a relationship in Japan. They created 2 opportunities for our team to visit the country over the past 2 years! Drew Combs Andrew Jason

Ahead of the launch of our #EUTechManifesto, our President Kristin Skogen Lund shares her thoughts on “How to get tech right in Europe” in POLITICO Europe 📰 “As our societies navigate challenging times and undergo widespread digital transformation, fostering growth in our home-grown tech businesses has never been more critical to achieving the wider goals of the European project.” Read the full article here 👇 https://lnkd.in/eAu3NFku

Big Tech is rewiring the world. These very large private companies, rooted in research and development (R&D), now wield unprecedented and unparalleled influence on production and consumption relations. They command vast resources, attain granular reach and wield informational leadership in the expansive ecosystems and elite technologies they operate. They have established important positions as intermediaries in the socio-cultural, political, and science domains of regions like Europe. In just one year, the top 5 Big Tech invested in R&I more than twice the funding allocated by the EU-27 to the Horizon Europe 2021-2027 programme. In this redefined world, Europe faces a number of agenda-setting questions. Will the regulatory framework deliver? Should Big Tech be broken up or standards relaxed? Should national and supra-national authorities foster alternative ventures capable of operating at global scale and scope thereby challenging the dominance of the USA (and China)? Alternatively, should policy makers prioritise an economic fabric full of smaller enterprises that are locally creative and dynamic? This policy brief aims to anticipate the implications of ‘Big Tech’ for Europe’s future by 2040. The in-depth exploration adopts the format of a scenario exercise, with a focus on R&I policy.

This week, I joined seven EU tech success stories in #Berlin to meet with 🇩🇪German officials. Together, we presented the vision of EU tech companies for 🇪🇺 2030 and discussed how to unlock EU tech’s potential both within Europe and globally. Main takeaways: 🏆 Developing a #strategy for EU tech: It’s time for the EU to #boost #European #tech, particularly scale-ups, to grow and innovate. 🎯 Ensuring rigorous rule enforcement: EU policymakers must resist the temptation to address enforcement gaps by hastily introducing new regulations. Rather, their focus should be on strengthening existing enforcement mechanisms. 🧩 Coherent EU regulatory landscape: Make laws fit like puzzle pieces. European, national, and regional measures should complement each other, not clash or duplicate efforts. 📊 Guaranteeing impact assessment: We emphasised the importance of conducting thorough impact assessments to understand the implications of regulatory measures on the market, particularly for EU tech firms. 🤝 Fostering Enhanced #Cooperation: We advocated for improved coordination among national authorities. It would support innovation and limit EU fragmentation. Vielen Dank an unsere Gastgeber Jens Zimmermann, Reinhard Brandl, Maik Außendorf and State Secretaries Jörg Kukies, Stefan Schnorr and Heiko Thoms as well as to Malte Engeler and their colleagues and teams for an open exchange about the future of EU digital policies and the #EUTA #Vision2030. Thank you 🤝 to  Moritz Maisenbacher and Bernstein Group for supporting our engagement! And, of course, a special thanks to European Tech Alliance members who joined our meetings: Carolin Wehrhahn (Adevinta), Laurin Sepoetro (Wolt), Carolien Mazal (TomTom), Lucie Hinzelin (Delivery Hero), Alexandra Wolframm (Booking.com) and Ena Salihovic (Zalando), Nina Staub, LL.M. (VUW) (AirHelp). 👏👏👏 Together, let’s unlock European tech at home and beyond
