In this episode, we sit down with Dan Hoffman—founder, CEO, and president of Circl.es—to unpack the surprising truth behind real leadership growth: it happens in small circles, not big rooms. Dan traces his path from building M5 Networks and navigating a tough public-company chapter, to a life-changing sabbatical in Barcelona that reframed how he thinks about success.He introduces a simple but powerful idea: small, curated peer forums help people live and lead better. We explore why five to ten diverse peers, structured conversations, professional facilitation, and a hybrid cadence anchored by in-person retreats consistently outperform traditional corporate learning. Dan breaks down how Circle Space uses data, design, and psychological safety to scale authentic connection—echoing research like Google's Project Aristotle on trust, equal airtime, and vulnerability.Beyond the frameworks, Dan opens up about how forums shaped his own choices, taught him to listen more than speak, and strengthened him as a leader, partner, and human. If you've ever wondered whether a peer forum could help you grow—or what it feels like to sit in a truly safe circle—this conversation might be your invitation.If you enjoy the episode, follow the show, share it with someone who leads teams, and leave a quick review to help bring more leaders into circles where growth becomes a habit.Please visit www.internationalfacilitatorsorganization.com to learn more about Mo Fathelbab and International Facilitators Organization (IFO), a leading provider of facilitators and related group facilitation services, providing training, certification, marketing services, education, and community for peer group facilitators at all stages of their career.

Tema del dia El Silvestre ens anima a aprofitar qualsevol oportunitat per practicar el català. El James fa una comparació interessant entre els llibres i el menjar. I el Kuba ja forma part de la comunitat després d'haver-nos conegut per casualitat a Barcelona. Si encara no ho ets, fes-te membre de la comunitat i participa en les nostres activitats presencials: (https://easycatalan.org/membership) - anar al teatre o al cine - fer el vermut o anar a prendre alguna cosa - jugar a l'Scrabble en català - ... Paraules i expressions eufemístiques El Randy ens proposa parlar d'eufemismes o expressions "poètiques" per fer referència a coses o accions del dia a dia: dormir, menjar, anar al lavabo, gos, gat, morir-se, fer l'amor... Entre d'altres, en comentem algunes com fer un riu i plantar un pi. Bonus Fem una cerca ràpida a internet per trobar altres expressions eufemístiques que ens hem deixat. Un bonus més llarg de l'habitual! Transcripció Andreu: [0:16] Hola, Joan! Joan: [0:17] Hola hola! Andreu: [0:18] Què, com has dormit aquests últims dies? Joan: [0:20] Doncs… millor. Andreu: [0:22] Sí? Me n'alegro. Doncs, no sé si estàs gaire pendent de l'activitat a Discord aquests dies, perquè ja m'imagino que canviant bolquers i intentant que no plori la Meritxell i tot això, doncs no… no hi tens l'ull tan posat, però fa poc el Silvestre ens va enviar un àudio que m'agradaria reproduir aquí, al pòdcast, perquè crec que el missatge és molt encoratjador, molt motivador i… bé, si no l'has escoltat, que em penso que no, ara és el moment. Joan: [0:56] No l'he sentit, però vaig veure… és que tot i que no dedico tantes hores al Discord, sí que de tant en tant m'arriben les notificacions i vaig veure que havia enviat alguna cosa, el que passa que els àudios no em van gaire bé d'escoltar, si són gaire llargs. Andreu: [1:11] No et donen gaire bé, què vol dir? Que et fa mandra? Joan: [1:14] No, que… que… no trobo el moment, perquè jo què sé, si la nena dorm, no em posaré un àudio, saps? És més fàcil llegir, perquè sobretot estic moltes hores al mòbil a la nit. Andreu: [1:23] De fet, em va fer molta gràcia, perquè quan va néixer la Meritxell, vau… la Sílvia va enviar-nos un missatge dient: "Sisplau, no ens envieu àudios, perquè ens costa molt escoltar-los, no tenim moments", etcètera. I jo vaig dir: "Massa tard", i llavors us vaig enviar l'episodi de pòdcast. Joan: [1:41] És que justament la Sílvia ho va dir perquè m'havies enviat com dos o tres àudios aquells dies, no sé si era en relació a alguna cosa de la feina, i jo: "És que quan escoltaré aquests àudios?", perquè, o sigui, estàvem allà a l'hospital, és un lloc amb altra gent, eh… no sé, saps?, era... No vols fer soroll per no despertar la nena, no sé, és com… Saps? I dic: "Me càgon l'Andreu, que no para d'enviar àudios", i la Sílvia va dir: "No envieu més àudios", i tu: "Fote't!" Andreu: [2:07] Clar, clar, és que era massa tard, perquè ja el teníem editat i tot. Joan: [2:11] No, ens va encantar, la Sílvia es va posar a plorar, escoltant-lo, es va emocionar molt. Va ser molt bonic. Andreu: [2:16] Aquesta era la intenció, emocionar-vos una mica. Joan: [2:19] Vas fer una introducció… Mira, quan va arrencar l'episodi, li dic a la Sílvia, perquè clar, em sembla que eren com 16 minuts i ja portàvem 4 minuts que només parlaves tu, i dic: "(Quin) monòleg que s'ha muntat l'Andreu!" No, perquè vas fer una intro preciosa, saps? I jo pensava: "Buah, aquest tio, saps? 16 minuts, dura això!" I després van arrencar els membres de la comunitat i va ser… va ser molt bonic, tot plegat. Andreu: [2:47] Això va ser, ara no ho recordo, els dies abans o just després del casament, que jo també tenia una ressaca emocional important, i clar, eren massa coses. Massa coses. I em vaig posar a escriure… Joan: [3:01] No, et va sortir una introducció… Quin poeta! Mare de Déu, l'Andreu! O sigui, si no l'heu sentit, aquest episodi, o sigui, els primers cinc minuts són or. La resta també, però l'Andreu s'ho va currar molt. Andreu: [3:12] És que clar, no us podia veure i sé que era un moment superimportant, i no sé… Bé, en fi, que no volíem parlar d'això. És que ens enrotllem com una persiana! No pot ser, això. Joan: [3:23] Sí, sí, abans ho comentàvem. Andreu: [3:27] Doncs això, et vull ensenyar el missatge, i vull compartir aquí amb l'audiència, el missatge del Silvestre, que és membre de la comunitat i que de tant en tant ens envia àudios molt bonics. I bé, doncs aquest n'és un. Vinga! Joan: [3:40] Va, va, va. Va! Silvestre: [3:41] Hola hola! Bon dia! Bon dia a tothom! Espero que tot vagi bé. Ja feia molt de temps que no enviava notes de veu i us (trobava a faltar), així que en aquest moment aprofito i, primer de tot, moltes felicitats al Joan i a la Sílvia per la filla, per la petita Meritxell, una abraçada forta. I, per altra banda, volia comentar, perquè fa una setmana que vaig tenir una conversa amb una persona, un home català, i bé, no?, em sento molt content, perquè si és ben cert que dia a dia no parlo gaire català, o sigui, diguem-ne amb una altra persona, a vegades ho faig jo mateix, i de tant en tant amb el meu germà, l'Antonio. Però és complicat. I el que volia dir és que si teniu l'oportunitat de fer servir el català, doncs, us animo que continu(eu), que segu(iu), perquè això és molt molt molt gratificant. I se m'omple el cor d'emocions perquè... o sigui, sigui una petita conversa, no?, una vegada acaba, et sents bé, et canvia el dia, i és una cosa que volia compartir-vos, així que una abraçada i ja ens veiem aviat, d'acord?

Fluent Fiction - Catalan: From Solitude to Connection: Jordi's Snowy Realization Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/ca/episode/2025-11-20-08-38-20-ca Story Transcript:Ca: El vent fred xiulava entre les branques dels roures antics del bosc de Montjuïc, on Jordi caminava en silenci, esperant trobar la pau que tant anhelava.En: The cold wind whistled among the branches of the ancient oak trees in the Montjuïc forest, where Jordi walked in silence, hoping to find the peace he so longed for.Ca: Les fulles groguenques i marrons formaven una catifa sota els seus peus, però aquella tardor amagava una sorpresa: una tempesta de neu inesperada.En: The yellow and brown leaves formed a carpet under his feet, but that autumn hid a surprise: an unexpected snowstorm.Ca: Jordi coneixia cada racó d'aquella muntanya.En: Jordi knew every corner of that mountain.Ca: La boscositat del terreny era un refugi per al seu esperit inquiet, que sovint buscava escapar de la vida sorollosa de Barcelona.En: The woodland terrain was a refuge for his restless spirit, which often sought to escape the noisy life of Barcelona.Ca: No obstant això, aquella nit, la natura havia decidit desafiar la seva saviesa i confiança.En: However, that night, nature had decided to challenge his wisdom and confidence.Ca: El cel es va enfosquir ràpidament.En: The sky darkened quickly.Ca: Flocs de neu van començar a caure amb intensitat, cobrint el terra en un mantell blanc.En: Snowflakes began to fall heavily, covering the ground in a white blanket.Ca: Jordi, bocabadat, va adonar-se que havia subestimat la muntanya.En: Jordi, astonished, realized he had underestimated the mountain.Ca: La visibilitat va minvar, i el camí que tan bé coneixia es va esvair sota la nevada.En: Visibility diminished, and the path he knew so well vanished under the snowfall.Ca: Atrapant l'aire gèlid, Jordi va decidir que havia de trobar refugi abans que fos massa tard.En: Breathing in the icy air, Jordi decided he needed to find shelter before it was too late.Ca: Amb mans tremoloses, va recollir branques seques i va construir un petit refugi.En: With trembling hands, he gathered dry branches and built a small shelter.Ca: Després, amb les seves habilitats, va encendre un foc minúscul.En: Then, with his skills, he lit a tiny fire.Ca: Les flames van ballar amb la brisa, proporcionant-li una mica de calor i esperança.En: The flames danced with the breeze, providing him with a bit of warmth and hope.Ca: Tot i la situació, Jordi es va sentir sol com mai.En: Despite the situation, Jordi felt lonelier than ever.Ca: En aquell moment de quietud imposada, va reflexionar sobre la seva vida.En: In that moment of imposed stillness, he reflected on his life.Ca: Per què s'allunyava de les persones que estimava?En: Why did he distance himself from the people he loved?Ca: Per què buscava sempre solitud?En: Why was he always seeking solitude?Ca: Mentre les hores passaven lentament, va començar a comprendre que la seva felicitat també depenia dels altres.En: As the hours passed slowly, he began to understand that his happiness also depended on others.Ca: De sobte, un so trencador: veus llunyanes i lladrucs de gossos.En: Suddenly, a breaking sound: distant voices and barking dogs.Ca: Jordi, ple d'esperança renovada, es va aixecar amb dificultat i va cridar amb totes les seves forces.En: Jordi, filled with renewed hope, stood up with difficulty and shouted with all his might.Ca: —Aquí!En: "Here!Ca: Aquí!En: Here!"Ca: Les figures van aparèixer entre els arbres, amb llanternes a la mà.En: Figures appeared among the trees, flashlights in hand.Ca: Maria i Pere, ben equipats amb roba d'abrig, van córrer cap a ell.En: Maria and Pere, well-equipped with warm clothes, ran towards him.Ca: Eren part de l'equip de rescat que el buscava des que la tempesta s'havia intensificat.En: They were part of the rescue team that had been searching for him since the storm had intensified.Ca: —Jordi!En: "Jordi!"Ca: —va exclamar Maria, abraçant-lo amb força.En: exclaimed Maria, embracing him tightly.Ca: Pere va somriure amb alleujament.En: Pere smiled with relief.Ca: Amb el suport dels seus amics, Jordi va ser guiat fora del bosc.En: With the support of his friends, Jordi was guided out of the forest.Ca: Al costat del foc de campament, mentre bevia un cafè calent, va mirar Maria i Pere amb gratitud.En: By the campfire, while sipping hot coffee, he looked at Maria and Pere with gratitude.Ca: —He après una lliçó —va dir Jordi, sentint les paraules brollar amb sinceritat—.En: "I've learned a lesson," said Jordi, feeling the words flow sincerely.Ca: No vull estar més sol.En: "I don't want to be alone anymore.Ca: Necessito vosaltres.En: I need you.Ca: Necessito algú amb qui compartir la meva vida.En: I need someone to share my life with."Ca: Maria i Pere van assentir, contents de tenir el seu amic de retorn, tant físicament com emocionalment.En: Maria and Pere nodded, happy to have their friend back, both physically and emotionally.Ca: Els lligams que Jordi havia descuidat semblaven més forts que mai, i va prometre cuidar-los, conscient de que la vida compartida era més brillant i significativa.En: The bonds Jordi had neglected seemed stronger than ever, and he promised to nurture them, aware that a shared life was brighter and more meaningful.Ca: Aquella nit, el bosc de Montjuïc va tornar a la tranquil·litat, mentre Jordi deixava enrere la seva solitud.En: That night, the Montjuïc forest returned to tranquility, as Jordi left his solitude behind.Ca: Va saber que sempre hi ha una mà amiga esperant per oferir ajuda, encara que la neu caigui amb fúria.En: He knew there was always a helping hand ready to offer assistance, even when the snow falls furiously.

Former Scotland international Pat Nevin and ex-Scotland captain Rachel Corsie join Steve Crossman and commentator Eilidh Barbour from Hampden as Scotland secure a first World Cup spot for 28 years. The team react to an epic night of football in Glasgow that finished 4-2 and had it all:  6 goals, a red card, a penalty, a stoppage time winner and a final-kick-of-the-game goal. Hear from Steve Clarke, the first Scotland manager to get the national team to three consecutive major tournaments, as well as from captain Andy Robertson and goalscorers Kieran Tierney and Kenny McLean. There's also an interview with midfielder John McGinn. Elsewhere, Wales thrashed North Macedonia 7-1 to earn themselves a home advantage in next year's World Cup play-off semi-final.

Spain are going to the World Cup! It has always seemed like a formality, but Luis de la Fuente's side officially secured their spot with a draw in their final qualifier against Turkey.

Paul Chitlik is appearing on StoryBeat for the third time. Paul is a truly gifted storyteller and teacher who has written screenplays, novels, and non-fiction, including writing for all the major networks and studios in both English and in Spanish.   Paul's been a story editor, director, and producer in both TV and features. He was nominated for a Writers Guild of America award for "The Twilight Zone" and a GLAAD Media Award nomination for Telemundo's "Los Beltrán.”  And he won a Genesis Award for a Showtime Family movie. He also happens to be one of the best screenwriting teachers in the world.  He's taught in various MFA programs around the world, including: UCLA and Loyola Marymount in L.A., and in Barcelona, Cuba, Chile, Venezuela, Mexico, and Sweden.  His highly regarded book, Rewrite, is one of the essential, must-read books for anyone interested in writing screenplays, teleplays, plays, and even novels. I've read his latest screenwriting book, The Screenwriting Sensei, which I thoroughly enjoyed because it took me straight back to Graduate School at UCLA when I was one of Paul's numerous students. Paul's teachings have remained exceptionally influential on me for both my own writing and in my subsequent years as a college professor of screenwriting. I highly urge anyone interested in writing for the screen to check out The Screenwriting Sensei.

In this episode of the 10Adventures podcast, we are joined by Chris Finch, author of Wild Cities, about the critical role nature plays in modern urban life — and how cities around the world are finding simple, innovative ways to reconnect people with the outdoors. Chris explains key concepts from the book, including biophilia, the human need for nature, and homo urbanus, the rapid shift to city living that has reshaped our daily experience over the last century. Together, they explore inspiring examples from cities across the globe: Japan's research on nature and stress, Nairobi's challenges with “biophobia,” Singapore's groundbreaking green buildings, Medellín's wildlife corridors, Barcelona's superblocks and BC Buses, and more. This conversation shows how nature isn't a luxury — it's a necessity that improves health, happiness, safety, and even biodiversity. And importantly, many of the most effective solutions are low-cost, scalable, and already transforming cities today.

"Nos consideraban delincuentes por ejercer derechos que ahora son constitucionales" como pertenecer a un sindicato o un partido político. O participar en una huelga. Carles Vallejo y Maribel Ferrandis son miembros de la Asociación Catalana de personas ex presas políticas del franquismo. Con ellos visitamos la cárcel Modelo de Barcelona, ahora resignificada como escuela de primaria, centro cívico para el barrio y de memoria de la represión franquista. Antes hemos escuchado a Marcel Camacho, hijo de los sindicalistas Marcelino Camacho y Josefina Samper, recordando lo que para él significó la muerte de Franco ese 20 de Noviembre de 1975. La memoria de estos activistas antifranquistas coincide en advertir a los jóvenes que antes de creer que el fascismo es la solución de sus problemas deberían saber exactamente qué fue la dictadura y lo que suponía para quienes en ese momento tenían su edad.

Live from Morgan Stanley's European Tech, Media and Telecom conference in Barcelona, our roundtable of analysts discuss artificial intelligence in Europe, and how the region could enable the Agentic AI wave.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Paul Walsh: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Paul Walsh, Morgan Stanley's European head of research product. We are bringing you a special episode today live from Morgan Stanley's, 25th European TMT Conference, currently underway. The central theme we're focused on: Can Europe keep up from a technology development perspective?It's Wednesday, November the 12th at 8:00 AM in Barcelona. Earlier this morning I was live on stage with my colleagues, Adam Wood, Head of European Technology and Payments, Emmet Kelly, Head of European Telco and Data Centers, and Lee Simpson, Head of European Technology Hardware. The larger context of our conversation was tech diffusion, one of our four key themes that we've identified at Morgan Stanley Research for 2025. For the panel, we wanted to focus further on agentic AI in Europe, AI disruption as well as adoption, and data centers. We started off with my question to Adam. I asked him to frame our conversation around how Europe is enabling the Agentic AI wave. Adam Wood: I mean, I think obviously the debate around GenAI, and particularly enterprise software, my space has changed quite a lot over the last three to four months. Maybe it's good if we do go back a little bit to the period before that – when everything was more positive in the world. And I think it is important to think about, you know, why we were excited, before we started to debate the outcomes. And the reason we were excited was we've obviously done a lot of work with enterprise software to automate business processes. That's what; that's ultimately what software is about. It's about automating and standardizing business processes. They can be done more efficiently and more repeatably. We'd done work in the past on RPA vendors who tried to take the automation further. And we were getting numbers that, you know, 30 – 40 percent of enterprise processes have been automated in this way. But I think the feeling was it was still the minority. And the reason for that was it was quite difficult with traditional coding techniques to go a lot further. You know, if you take the call center as a classic example, it's very difficult to code what every response is going to be to human interaction with a call center worker. It's practically impossible. And so, you know, what we did for a long time was more – where we got into those situations where it was difficult to code every outcome, we'd leave it with labor. And we'd do the labor arbitrage often, where we'd move from onshore workers to offshore workers, but we'd still leave it as a relatively manual process with human intervention in it. I think the really exciting thing about GenAI is it completely transforms that equation because if the computers can understand natural human language, again to our call center example, we can train the models on every call center interaction. And then first of all, we can help the call center worker predict what the responses are going to be to incoming queries. And then maybe over time we can even automate that role. I think it goes a lot further than, you know, call center workers. We can go into finance where a lot of work is still either manual data re-entry or a remediation of errors. And again, we can automate a lot more of those tasks. That's obviously where, where SAP's involved. But basically what I'm trying to say is if we expand massively the capabilities of what software can automate, surely that has to be good for the software sector that has to expand the addressable markets of what software companies are going to be able to do. Now we can have a secondary debate around: Is it going to be the incumbents, is it going to be corporates that do more themselves? Is it going to be new entrants that that benefit from this? But I think it's very hard to argue that if you expand dramatically the capabilities of what software can do, you don't get a benefit from that in the sector. Now we're a little bit more consumer today in terms of spending, and the enterprises are lagging a little bit. But I think for us, that's just a question of timing. And we think we'll see that come through.I'll leave it there. But I think there's lots of opportunities in software. We're probably yet to see them come through in numbers, but that shouldn't mean we get, you know, kind of, we don't think they're going to happen. Paul Walsh: Yeah. We're going to talk separately about AI disruption as we go through this morning's discussion. But what's the pushback you get, Adam, to this notion of, you know, the addressable market expanding? Adam Wood: It's one of a number of things. It's that… And we get onto the kind of the multiple bear cases that come up on enterprise software. It would be some combination of, well, if coding becomes dramatically cheaper and we can set up, you know, user interfaces on the fly in the morning, that can query data sets; and we can access those data sets almost in an automated way. Well, maybe companies just do this themselves and we move from a world where we've been outsourcing software to third party software vendors; we do more of it in-house. That would be one. The other one would be the barriers to entry of software have just come down dramatically. It's so much easier to write the code, to build a software company and to get out into the market. That it's going to be new entrants that challenge the incumbents. And that will just bring price pressure on the whole market and bring… So, although what we automate gets bigger, the price we charge to do it comes down. The third one would be the seat-based pricing issue that a lot of software vendors to date have expressed the value they deliver to customers through. How many seats of the software you have in house. Well, if we take out 10 – 20 percent of your HR department because we make them 10, 20, 30 percent more efficient. Does that mean we pay the software vendor 10, 20, 30 percent less? And so again, we're delivering more value, we're automating more and making companies more efficient. But the value doesn't accrue to the software vendors. It's some combination of those themes I think that people would worry about. Paul Walsh: And Lee, let's bring you into the conversation here as well, because around this theme of enabling the agentic AI way, we sort of identified three main enabler sectors. Obviously, Adam's with the software side. Cap goods being the other one that we mentioned in the work that we've done. But obviously semis is also an important piece of this puzzle. Walk us through your thoughts, please. Lee Simpson: Sure. I think from a sort of a hardware perspective, and really we're talking about semiconductors here and possibly even just the equipment guys, specifically – when seeing things through a European lens. It's been a bonanza. We've seen quite a big build out obviously for GPUs. We've seen incredible new server architectures going into the cloud. And now we're at the point where we're changing things a little bit. Does the power architecture need to be changed? Does the nature of the compute need to change? And with that, the development and the supply needs to move with that as well. So, we're now seeing the mantle being picked up by the AI guys at the very leading edge of logic. So, someone has to put the equipment in the ground, and the equipment guys are being leaned into. And you're starting to see that change in the order book now. Now, I labor this point largely because, you know, we'd been seen as laggards frankly in the last couple of years. It'd been a U.S. story, a GPU heavy story. But I think for us now we're starting to see a flipping of that and it's like, hold on, these are beneficiaries. And I really think it's 'cause that bow wave has changed in logic. Paul Walsh: And Lee, you talked there in your opening remarks about the extent to which obviously the focus has been predominantly on the U.S. ways to play, which is totally understandable for global investors. And obviously this has been an extraordinary year of ups and downs as it relates to the tech space. What's your sense in terms of what you are getting back from clients? Is the focus shifts may be from some of those U.S. ways to play to Europe? Are you sensing that shift taking place? How are clients interacting with you as it relates to the focus between the opportunities in the U.S. and Asia, frankly, versus Europe? Lee Simpson: Yeah. I mean, Europe's coming more into debate. It's more; people are willing to talk to some of the players. We've got other players in the analog space playing into that as well. But I think for me, if we take a step back and keep this at the global level, there's a huge debate now around what is the size of build out that we need for AI? What is the nature of the compute? What is the power pool? What is the power budgets going to look like in data centers? And Emmet will talk to that as well. So, all of that… Some of that argument's coming now and centering on Europe. How do they play into this? But for me, most of what we're finding people debate about – is a 20-25 gigawatt year feasible for [20]27? Is a 30-35 gigawatt for [20]28 feasible? And so, I think that's the debate line at this point – not so much as Europe in the debate. It's more what is that global pool going to look like? Paul Walsh: Yeah. This whole infrastructure rollout's got significant implications for your coverage universe… Lee Simpson: It does. Yeah. Paul Walsh: Emmet, it may be a bit tangential for the telco space, but was there anything you wanted to add there as it relates to this sort of agentic wave piece from a telco's perspective? Emmet Kelly: Yeah, there's a consensus view out there that telcos are not really that tuned into the AI wave at the moment – just from a stock market perspective. I think it's fair to say some telcos have been a source of funds for AI and we've seen that in a stock market context, especially in the U.S. telco space, versus U.S. tech over the last three to six months, has been a source of funds. So, there are a lot of question marks about the telco exposure to AI. And I think the telcos have kind of struggled to put their case forward about how they can benefit from AI. They talked 18 months ago about using chatbots. They talked about smart networks, et cetera, but they haven't really advanced their case since then. And we don't see telcos involved much in the data center space. And that's understandable because investing in data centers, as we've written, is extremely expensive. So, if I rewind the clock two years ago, a good size data center was 1 megawatt in size. And a year ago, that number was somewhere about 50 to 100 megawatts in size. And today a big data center is a gigawatt. Now if you want to roll out a 100 megawatt data center, which is a decent sized data center, but it's not huge – that will cost roughly 3 billion euros to roll out. So, telcos, they've yet to really prove that they've got much positive exposure to AI. Paul Walsh: That was an edited excerpt from my conversation with Adam, Emmet and Lee.

I'm Paul Walsh, Morgan Stanley's European Head of Research Product. Today we return to my conversation with Adam Wood. Head of European Technology and Payments, Emmet Kelly, Head of European Telco and Data Centers, and Lee Simpson, Head of European Technology. We were live on stage at Morgan Stanley's 25th TMT Europe conference. We had so much to discuss around the themes of AI enablers, semiconductors, and telcos. So, we are back with a concluding episode on tech disruption and data center investments. It's Thursday the 13th of November at 8am in Barcelona. After speaking with the panel about the U.S. being overweight AI enablers, and the pockets of opportunity in Europe, I wanted to ask them about AI disruption, which has been a key theme here in Europe. I started by asking Adam how he was thinking about this theme. Adam Wood: It's fascinating to see this year how we've gone in most of those sectors to how positive can GenAI be for these companies? How well are they going to monetize the opportunities? How much are they going to take advantage internally to take their own margins up? To flipping in the second half of the year, mainly to, how disruptive are they going to be? And how on earth are they going to fend off these challenges? Paul Walsh: And I think that speaks to the extent to which, as a theme, this has really, you know, built momentum. Adam Wood: Absolutely. And I mean, look, I think the first point, you know, that you made is absolutely correct – that it's very difficult to disprove this. It's going to take time for that to happen. It's impossible to do in the short term. I think the other issue is that what we've seen is – if we look at the revenues of some of the companies, you know, and huge investments going in there. And investors can clearly see the benefit of GenAI. And so investors are right to ask the question, well, where's the revenue for these businesses? You know, where are we seeing it in info services or in IT services, or in enterprise software. And the reality is today, you know, we're not seeing it. And it's hard for analysts to point to evidence that – well, no, here's the revenue base, here's the benefit that's coming through. And so, investors naturally flip to, well, if there's no benefit, then surely, we should focus on the risk. So, I think we totally understand, you know, why people are focused on the negative side of things today. I think there are differences between the sub-sectors. I mean, I think if we look, you know, at IT services, first of all, from an investor point of view, I think that's been pretty well placed in the losers' buckets and people are most concerned about that sub-sector… Paul Walsh: Something you and the global team have written a lot about. Adam Wood: Yeah, we've written about, you know, the risk of disruption in that space, the need for those companies to invest, and then the challenges they face. But I mean, if we just keep it very, very simplistic. If Gen AI is a technology that, you know, displaces labor to any extent – companies that have played labor arbitrage and provide labor for the last 20 - 25 years, you know, they're going to have to make changes to their business model. So, I think that's understandable. And they're going to have to demonstrate how they can change and invest and produce a business model that addresses those concerns. I'd probably put info services in the middle. But the challenge in that space is you have real identifiable companies that have emerged, that have a revenue base and that are challenging a subset of the products of those businesses. So again, it's perfectly understandable that investors would worry. In that context, it's not a potential threat on the horizon. It's a real threat that exists today against certainly their businesses. I think software is probably the most interesting. I'd put it in the kind of final bucket where I actually believe… Well, I think first of all, we certainly wouldn't take the view that there's no risk of disruption and things aren't going to change. Clearly that is going to be the case. I think what we'd want to do though is we'd want to continue to use frameworks that we've used historically to think about how software companies differentiate themselves, what the barriers to entry are. We don't think we need to throw all of those things away just because we have GenAI, this new set of capabilities. And I think investors will come back most easily to that space. Paul Walsh: Emett, you talked a little bit there before about the fact that you haven't seen a huge amount of progress or additional insight from the telco space around AI; how AI is diffusing across the space. Do you get any discussions around disruption as it relates to telco space? Emmet Kelly: Very, very little. I think the biggest threat that telcos do see is – it is from the hyperscalers. So, if I look at and separate the B2C market out from the B2B, the telcos are still extremely dominant in the B2C space, clearly. But on the B2B space, the hyperscalers have come in on the cloud side, and if you look at their market share, they're very, very dominant in cloud – certainly from a wholesale perspective. So, if you look at the cloud market shares of the big three hyperscalers in Europe, this number is courtesy of my colleague George Webb. He said it's roughly 85 percent; that's how much they have of the cloud space today. The telcos, what they're doing is they're actually reselling the hyperscale service under the telco brand name. But we don't see much really in terms of the pure kind of AI disruption, but there are concerns definitely within the telco space that the hyperscalers might try and move from the B2B space into the B2C space at some stage. And whether it's through virtual networks, cloudified networks, to try and get into the B2C space that way. Paul Walsh: Understood. And Lee maybe less about disruption, but certainly adoption, some insights from your side around adoption across the tech hardware space? Lee Simpson: Sure. I think, you know, it's always seen that are enabling the AI move, but, but there is adoption inside semis companies as well, and I think I'd point to design flow. So, if you look at the design guys, they're embracing the agentic system thing really quickly and they're putting forward this capability of an agent engineer, so like a digital engineer. And it – I guess we've got to get this right. It is going to enable a faster time to market for the design flow on a chip. So, if you have that design flow time, that time to market. So, you're creating double the value there for the client. Do you share that 50-50 with them? So, the challenge is going to be exactly as Adam was saying, how do you monetize this stuff? So, this is kind of the struggle that we're seeing in adoption. Paul Walsh: And Emmett, let's move to you on data centers. I mean, there are just some incredible numbers that we've seen emerging, as it relates to the hyperscaler investment that we're seeing in building out the infrastructure. I know data centers is something that you have focused tremendously on in your research, bringing our global perspectives together. Obviously, Europe sits within that. And there is a market here in Europe that might be more challenged. But I'm interested to understand how you're thinking about framing the whole data center story? Implications for Europe. Do European companies feed off some of that U.S. hyperscaler CapEx? How should we be thinking about that through the European lens? Emmet Kelly: Yeah, absolutely. So, big question, Paul. What… Paul Walsh: We've got a few minutes! Emmet Kelly: We've got a few minutes. What I would say is there was a great paper that came out from Harvard just two weeks ago, and they were looking at the scale of data center investments in the United States. And clearly the U.S. economy is ticking along very, very nicely at the moment. But this Harvard paper concluded that if you take out data center investments, U.S. economic growth today is actually zero. Paul Walsh: Wow. Emmet Kelly: That is how big the data center investments are. And what we've said in our research very clearly is if you want to build a megawatt of data center capacity that's going to cost you roughly $35 million today. Let's put that number out there. 35 million. Roughly, I'd say 25… Well, 20 to 25 million of that goes into the chips. But what's really interesting is the other remaining $10 million per megawatt, and I like to call that the picks and shovels of data centers; and I'm very convinced there is no bubble in that area whatsoever.So, what's in that area? Firstly, the first building block of a data center is finding a powered land bank. And this is a big thing that private equity is doing at the moment. So, find some real estate that's close to a mass population that's got a good fiber connection. Probably needs a little bit of water, but most importantly needs some power. And the demand for that is still infinite at the moment. Then beyond that, you've got the construction angle and there's a very big shortage of labor today to build the shells of these data centers. Then the third layer is the likes of capital goods, and there are serious supply bottlenecks there as well.And I could go on and on, but roughly that first $10 million, there's no bubble there. I'm very, very sure of that. Paul Walsh: And we conducted some extensive survey work recently as part of your analysis into the global data center market. You've sort of touched on a few of the gating factors that the industry has to contend with. That survey work was done on the operators and the supply chain, as it relates to data center build out. What were the key conclusions from that? Emmet Kelly: Well, the key conclusion was there is a shortage of power for these data centers, and… Paul Walsh: Which I think… Which is a sort of known-known, to some extent. Emmet Kelly: it is a known-known, but it's not just about the availability of power, it's the availability of green power. And it's also the price of power is a very big factor as well because energy is roughly 40 to 45 percent of the operating cost of running a data center. So, it's very, very important. And of course, that's another area where Europe doesn't screen very well.I was looking at statistics just last week on the countries that have got the highest power prices in the world. And unsurprisingly, it came out as UK, Ireland, Germany, and that's three of our big five data center markets. But when I looked at our data center stats at the beginning of the year, to put a bit of context into where we are…Paul Walsh: In Europe… Emmet Kelly: In Europe versus the rest. So, at the end of [20]24, the U.S. data center market had 35 gigawatts of data center capacity. But that grew last year at a clip of 30 percent. China had a data center bank of roughly 22 gigawatts, but that had grown at a rate of just 10 percent. And that was because of the chip issue. And then Europe has capacity, or had capacity at the end of last year, roughly 7 to 8 gigawatts, and that had grown at a rate of 10 percent. Now, the reason for that is because the three big data center markets in Europe are called FLAP-D. So, it's Frankfurt, London, Amsterdam, Paris, and Dublin. We had to put an acronym on it. So, Flap-D. Good news. I'm sitting with the tech guys. They've got even more acronyms than I do, in their sector, so well done them. Lee Simpson: Nothing beats FLAP-D. Paul Walsh: Yes. Emmet Kelly: It's quite an achievement. But what is interesting is three of the big five markets in Europe are constrained. So, Frankfurt, post the Ukraine conflict. Ireland, because in Ireland, an incredible statistic is data centers are using 25 percent of the Irish power grid. Compared to a global average of 3 percent.Now I'm from Dublin, and data centers are running into conflict with industry, with housing estates. Data centers are using 45 percent of the Dublin grid, 45. So, there's a moratorium in building data centers there. And then Amsterdam has the classic semi moratorium space because it's a small country with a very high population. So, three of our five markets are constrained in Europe. What is interesting is it started with the former Prime Minister Rishi Sunak. The UK has made great strides at attracting data center money and AI capital into the UK and the current Prime Minister continues to do that. So, the UK has definitely gone; moved from the middle lane into the fast lane. And then Macron in France. He hosted an AI summit back in February and he attracted over a 100 billion euros of AI and data center commitments. Paul Walsh: And I think if we added up, as per the research that we published a few months ago, Europe's announced over 350 billion euros, in proposed investments around AI. Emmet Kelly: Yeah, absolutely. It's a good stat. Now where people can get a little bit cynical is they can say a couple of things. Firstly, it's now over a year since the Mario Draghi report came out. And what's changed since? Absolutely nothing, unfortunately. And secondly, when I look at powering AI, I like to compare Europe to what's happening in the United States. I mean, the U.S. is giving access to nuclear power to AI. It started with the three Mile Island… Paul Walsh: Yeah. The nuclear renaissance is… Emmet Kelly: Nuclear Renaissance is absolutely huge. Now, what's underappreciated is actually Europe has got a massive nuclear power bank. It's right up there. But unfortunately, we're decommissioning some of our nuclear power around Europe, so we're going the wrong way from that perspective. Whereas President Trump is opening up the nuclear power to AI tech companies and data centers. Then over in the States we also have gas and turbines. That's a very, very big growth area and we're not quite on top of that here in Europe. So, looking at this year, I have a feeling that the Americans will probably increase their data center capacity somewhere between – it's incredible – somewhere between 35 and 50 percent. And I think in Europe we're probably looking at something like 10 percent again. Paul Walsh: Okay. Understood. Emmet Kelly: So, we're growing in Europe, but we're way, way behind as a starting point. And it feels like the others are pulling away. The other big change I'd highlight is the Chinese are really going to accelerate their data center growth this year as well. They've got their act together and you'll see them heading probably towards 30 gigs of capacity by the end of next year. Paul Walsh: Alright, we're out of time. The TMT Edge is alive and kicking in Europe. I want to thank Emmett, Lee and Adam for their time and I just want to wish everybody a great day today.
