CNBC's Arjun Kharpal and Steve Kovach sit down with tech journalist Michal Lev-Ram to explore whether AI is truly taking our jobs—or simply reshaping the workforce. From Silicon Valley's multi-million dollar talent wars to "vibe coding" the next billion-dollar startup, this episode unpacks what the tech means for your career, your boss and the future of work.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Why do Europe's brightest founders still feel forced to leave for Silicon Valley—no matter how much money or talent we pour into the region? Every year, ambitious startups across Europe and CEE struggle to scale—not for lack of ideas, but because of invisible barriers that keep global success out of reach.Is it really just about capital—or is there a deeper mindset and playbook that only a handful of founders ever discover?In this episode, venture insider Enis Hulli (General Partner at e2vc, investor in 40+ startups, 3 unicorns, and builder of bridges from Istanbul to the Bay) pulls back the curtain on the real reasons US-based startups keep winning—and how founders from Turkey, Eastern Europe, and beyond can finally turn the tables.

Welcome back to another episode of the EUVC Podcast, your trusted inside track on the people, deals, and dynamics shaping European venture.This week, Dan Bowyer and Mads Jensen of SuperSeed and Lomax from Outsized Ventures, gather to unpack the macro forces and micro signals shaping European tech and venture.They unpack the defense boom powering Europe's deep tech surge — and ask whether startups should rush in or sit this wave out. They break down OpenAI's next big product moves, the battle for browser dominance, and whether we're already at peak LLM. They ask if working from home quietly kills startup culture (and what actually keeps it alive). And they check in on Trump's tariffs, Europe's big tech fines, and the resilience playbook that's pulling startups deeper into geopolitics.If you're investing, building, or just trying to make sense of where Europe's venture scene goes next — this one's for you.Here's what's covered02:00 | The defense boom: Europe's rearmament momentHow Germany has overtaken the UK in startup funding for the first time — and why defense, dual-use, and resilience are fueling the deep tech wave.04:50 | Moral lines: should you build in defense?Mads, Lomax and Andrew debate whether there's an ethical red line — and if Europe's founders should follow the money or sit this one out.08:40 | Peak LLM? OpenAI launches a browserIs OpenAI eating Google's lunch? Mads explains why a new browser isn't just a gimmick — it's a data moat and a massive ad market play.12:00 | The new search wars & what founders should doLomax breaks down how SEO is dead — GEO (generative engine optimization) is in. Why this shift is reshaping startup distribution playbooks.15:30 | Grok 4, Elon & the next frontierMads explains how Musk's Grok leapfrogged benchmarks — and why the next LLM battle is all about compute, data quality, and Nvidia's $4T edge.18:50 | Does working from home kill culture?Are great companies built on Slack or in person? The crew unpacks why strong culture is more than values on a wall — and why the best teams come together.25:00 | Trump's tariffs: a real threat or priced in?Why markets barely shrug at Trump's latest trade threats — and what selective escalation could mean for European startups this autumn.29:00 | UK startup stats: steady but smallEight billion raised, a handful of unicorns minted — but the US is still 20x bigger. Why the same structural issues keep the UK from scaling like Silicon Valley.33:15 | Big Tech vs Europe: do the fines matter?From DMA penalties to encrypted chat backdoors, the team debates whether Brussels' big fines work — and who really pays the price.38:10 | Deal of the Week: Eutelsat's €1.35B resilience playWhy Europe's sovereign satellite champion matters — and why Lomax wants them to rebrand fast.

Welcome back to another episode of the EUVC Podcast, your trusted inside track on the people, deals, and dynamics shaping European venture.This week, Dan Bowyer and Mads Jensen of SuperSeed and Lomax from Outsized Ventures, gather to unpack the macro forces and micro signals shaping European tech and venture.They sit down to break down the two sides of the IPO market: the soaring optimism behind Figma's public debut — and the deep freeze that's hit London listings harder than at any time since before the dot-com crash.They also unpack what Figma's $730M paper loss means, how vertical AI is the next generation of SaaS, and what the UK must fix to stand a chance in the global listings race.If you're investing, building, or just trying to make sense of the markets this summer — this one's for you.Here's what's covered02:30 | AI infra's moment & CoreWeave hypeWhy infra plays like CoreWeave and Circle have the market buzzing — but vertical AI is where the next SaaS returns lie.04:50 | Figma's $730M paper loss explainedMad breaks down the headline figure, the failed Adobe deal, the FTC veto, and why this IPO is about fundamentals — not hype.08:20 | Tender offer drama & employee moraleHow Figma's $20B exit fizzled — and the May 2024 tender to keep teams motivated ahead of listing.12:00 | Figma as a bellwether for design & vertical AIWhy product-led SaaS is shifting toward deep vertical AI workflows — and what that means for investors.15:45 | London: the slowest IPO H1 in nearly 30 yearsCounter to the US's $9B+ haul in 12 deals, London managed just $160M across five listings. A brutal gap.18:10 | Worse than dot-com. Worse than ‘08.Dan & Mad put the numbers in perspective: this is the weakest stretch since before many listeners were born.26:15 | Dual-class shares & free float: too little too late?Why tweaking share classes & float minimums is more copy-paste than innovation — and not the real fix.35:20 | The ESG paradox & listing tensionWhere does London's ESG edge help — and where does it push big companies abroad?40:15 | US vs UK capital markets: talent, trust & scaleWhy founders and funds still flock to New York — and the structural advantages London must address.44:30 | Can London fight back?What would it actually take to make London relevant again for growth listings? Dan's realist take.50:00 | Lessons from Figma for foundersWhy strong fundamentals still matter — and how the tender saga shows the cost of employee trust.55:00 | The vertical AI playbook: Europe's edge?Where Europe's sector expertise might win if it can get capital markets working again.

Lawfare Contributing Editor Renée DiResta sits down with Daphne Keller, Director of the Program on Platform Regulation at Stanford University's Cyber Policy Center; Dean Jackson, Contributing Editor at Tech Policy Press and fellow at American University's Center for Security, Innovation, and New Technology; and Joan Barata, Senior Legal Fellow at The Future of Free Speech Project at Vanderbilt University and fellow at Stanford's Program on Platform Regulation, to make European tech regulation interesting. They discuss the European Union's Disinformation Code of Practice and its transition, on July 1, from voluntary framework co-authored by Big Tech, to legally binding obligation under the Digital Services Act (DSA). This sounds like a niche bureaucratic change—but it's provided a news hook for the Trump Administration and its allies in far-right parties across Europe to allege once again that they are being suppressed by Big Tech, and that this transition portends the end of free speech on the internet.Does it? No. But what do the Code and the DSA actually do? It's worth understanding the nuances of these regulations and how they may impact transparency, accountability, and free expression. The group discusses topics including Senator Marco Rubio's recent visa ban policy aimed at “foreign censors,” Romania's annulled election, and whether European regulation risks overreach or fails to go far enough.For more on this topic:Hate Speech: Comparing the US and EU ApproachesThe European Commission's Approach to DSA Systemic Risk is Concerning for Freedom of ExpressionThe Far Right's War on Content Moderation Comes to Europe Regulation or Repression?

From there, the conversation unfolds into a masterclass on leadership, team-building, and the nuances of scaling a company with intention.Marieke shares her unique perspective on hiring, emphasizing the importance of passion over pedigree, and why cultural fit can make or break a company. Drawing from her experiences at Expedia, Circle, and NEAR, she breaks down the dynamics of high-performing teams, comparing them to a well-coordinated basketball team where trust and collaboration overtake individual brilliance.Thomas echoes these insights, reflecting on Kiln's journey and the principles that have guided its growth—transparency, storytelling, and resilience in the face of crypto's notorious volatility. Together, they explore how founders can maintain focus during market downturns, why self-awareness is non-negotiable for leaders, and how Europe's tech ecosystem can compete on a global scale despite regulatory fragmentation.A highlight of the discussion is Marieke's work with Project Europe, an initiative uniting founders and operators to strengthen the continent's startup ecosystem. She outlines the challenges—such as complex cross-border investment rules and inconsistent stock option policies—while expressing optimism about Europe's deep talent pool and long-term commitment to innovation.The conversation also touches on the transition from operator to board member, the role of coaching in leadership development, and the personal habits that help founders navigate high-pressure environments.PODCAST INFO:

It's not an exaggeration to say that the artificial intelligence revolution has been dominated by American companies.
