Geert Laporte, Miriam Mukalazi, Robert Zischg, Philomena Apiko, Georg Krenn, Jamie Just, Stephan Scholz25 YEARS OF STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP IN TURBULENT TIMESAfrica-Europe relations and the Austrian Africa Strategy Twenty-five years have passed since the establishment of the EU–Africa Partnership at the first summit in Cairo, and seventeen years since the adoption of the historic Joint Africa–Europe Strategy in Lisbon in 2007, whose preamble says “Africa and Europe are bound together by history, culture, geography and a common future, as well as by a community of values – respect for human rights, freedom, equality, solidarity, justice, the rule of law and democracy.”Since then, the partnership has faced many tensions around diverging priorities like migration policies, vaccine distribution among others. The Russian invasion of Ukraine and the Israel–Hamas war have further exposed geopolitical rifts, and Brexit and the decline of French influence in West Africa have weakened Europe's traditional position on the continent and African scholars and policymakers continue to question the notion of a “partnership of equals” as long as power asymmetries, colonial legacies and the full historical context remain insufficiently addressed.Today, Europe is challenged to engage as a genuine partner with a more self-confident Africa — an Africa that increasingly pursues its own interests and has strategic alternatives with China, India, Russia, or the Gulf states, in view of the new geopolitical and economic realities, the EU has a renewed interest to reach out to Africa with its emerging markets, trading and investment opportunities. According to EU President Antonio Costa, the 7th AU–EU Summit, held in Luanda on November 24–25 was set “strengthen cooperation in key areas such as economic integration, trade and investment, green transition, digitalization, migration, peace and security, multilateralism, and human development”.The Austrian Foreign Minister Meinl-Reisinger also emphasized that Africa is a continent of opportunity, marked by enormous economic potential and a dynamic young population and the new Austrian Africa Strategy, recently announced by the Austrian government, shall follow similar priorities.The event shall analyze the major achievements, potentials and challenges of the current AU – EU partnership, discuss the main results of the summit in Luanda from different point of views and explore how the priorities and modalities of the upcoming Austrian Africa Strategy could contribute to embolden a renewed partnership among equals.  ModeratorMiriam Mukalazi, Africa Policy Programme, VIDCKey noteGeert Laporte, Senior Associate of ECDPM, former Director of the European Think Tanks GroupAU-EU Summits-25 years of strategic partnership in turbulent times: What are the majors achievements, potentials and challenges of the current AU – EU partnership?DiscussantsRobert Zischg, Head of Department for Sub-Sahara Africa and the African Union, Austrian Federal Ministry for European and Internationals AffairsPhilomena Apiko, Policy Analyst on AU-EU relations, ECPDMJaimie Just, African European Civil Society Engagement Platform (CSEP/Concord)Georg Krenn, Austrian Commercial Counsellor & Head of ADVANTAGE AUSTRIA CairoStefan Scholz, design.

The very latest statistics make it clear that, given the pervasiveness of organised crime worldwide, at least 2 regular listeners of Three Bean Salad must be directly involved in some Mob or other (and most likely at a middle-management level). But who are they? And do they know each other? Are they sworn enemies or, given their shared life experience, might they be able to develop a soul-nourishing friendship if they could only drop the street tough outer crust for 5 ruddy minutes??!!

Hello Interactors,Spain's high-speed trains feels like a totally different trajectory of modernity. America prides itself on being the tech innovator, but nowhere can we blast 180 MPH between city centers with seamless transfers to metros and buses…and no TSA drudgery. But look closer and the familiar comes into view — rising car ownership, rush-hour congestion (except in Valencia!), and growth patterns that echo America. I wanted to follow these parallel tracks back to the nineteenth-century U.S. rail boom and forward to Spain's high-spe ed era. Turns out it's not just about who gets faster rail or faster freeways, but what kind of growth they lock in once they arrive.TRAINS, CITIES, AND CONTRADICTIONSMy wife and I took high-speed rail (HSR) on our recent trip to Spain. My first thought was, “Why can't we have nice things?”They're everywhere.Madrid to Barcelona in two and a half hours. Barcelona to Valencia, Valencia back to Madrid. Later, Porto to Lisbon. Even Portugal is in on it. We glided out of city-center stations, slipped past housing blocks and industrial belts, then settled into the familiar grain of Mediterranean countryside at 300 kilometers an hour. The Wi-Fi (mostly) worked. The seats were comfortable. No annoying TSA.Where HSR did not exist or didn't quite fit our schedule, we filled gaps with EasyJet flights. We did rent a car to seek the 100-foot waves at Nazaré, Portugal, only to be punished by the crawl of Porto's rush-hour traffic in a downpour. Within cities, we took metros, commuter trains, trams, buses, bike share, and walked…a lot.From the perspective of a sustainable transportation advocate, we were treated to the complete “nice things” package: fast trains between cities, frequent rail and bus service inside them, and streets catering to human bodies more than SUVs. What surprised me, though, was the way these nice things coexist with growth patterns that look — in structural terms — uncomfortably familiar.In this video

Vanyfox is a DJ/producer taking the Portugal-born dance music genre batida to the world. Raised on the outskirts of Lisbon near the Quinta do Mocho neighborhood (home to many batida pioneers including Marfox and DJ Nervoso) and based in France, Vanyfox discusses his early memories and the emotions, experiences and production techniques that influence his sound, which borrows from trap, deep house and the rhythms of kuduro, kizomba and zouk. We talk about the deep life questions behind his Melodias e Choros EP, working with Montreal's Moonshine crew, his Angolan-Zairean heritage, the lineage of the coxes and foxes, his approach to DJing and his unique experiences traveling to Ivory Coast, Zanzibar, Saudi Arabia, and Ethiopia.

David Novo from Lisbon's Record newspaper joins to help us preview the Dérbi de Lisboa, as Benfica host Sporting CP in a battle for bragging rights in the Portuguese capital. Along with Porto — which hails from the town of the same name further north — they make up the Big Three clubs in this nation of under 11 million people that punches far above its weight on the global stage.We got into how, exactly, Portugal and these clubs in particular produce so many fantastic players. We traced some of the history of this rivalry, including the crucial intervention of the legendary Eusébio, who turned the tide after years of Sporting dominance to deliver Benfica into a new era. We talked over the return of José Mourinho to Portuguese football, as he's now coaching Benfica after all his years of massive success with Porto and across Europe. And David offered some intel on where to eat and drink if you're going to the Estádio da Luz — where this one will be played on Friday — or the Estádio José Alvalade.Follow David on Twitter and Instagram

From wedding rings to modern handcuffs: Why intelligent men don't stay married long - and the brutal truth about guardrails, strategic stupidity, and the mutual respect that keeps marriages alive for 40 years. In this unfiltered episode of Konnected Minds, Dr. Charles Apoki - married 40 years and recognized by police at London City Airport, by strangers in Swiss restaurants - dismantles the romantic delusion keeping young African couples trapped in divorce cycles. The episode exposes a devastating truth most men discover too late: you already won the greatest argument in life when she changed her father's name to answer your father's name. Yet men still waste energy trying to win arguments with their wives, demanding logic from creatures designed to operate emotionally. You had girls in your class who were more brilliant than you because they weren't doing the drinking, smoking, and cult activities you were doing. If this lady is a medical doctor, you must respect her as a person, as an entity - the mutual respect between two individuals that makes submission work both ways. Dr. Apoki reveals why his marriage has lasted: guardrails. Guardrails of the word of God, guardrails of mentors, guardrails of models you look up to, and the psychological reorientation to face reality. Millions follow him worldwide, creating a duty to provide a model that lasts. But beyond the public platform, there's the private truth: there are days you will wonder why you married this person, particularly in the first five years. You will wonder. And then you must realize - we are in this for life. Critical revelations include: • Why the wedding ring is a modern handcuff - you chose your prison mate for life • The pepper soup principle: marriage is hot, you'll sneeze, tears will come, you'll see bones - drink water, wipe your nose, keep going • How you already won the greatest argument when she changed her father's name to answer yours - stop trying to win more • Why men want to be rational and logical while women are emotional - and that's exactly why she agreed to marry you • The kneeling reality: whether you approach from front or behind, you kneel down - that's worship, and wives deserve respect • Why mutual respect between two individuals precedes submission - submit yourselves to one another comes before wives submit to husbands • The rights without responsibility crisis: young people claiming privileges without appreciation or accountability • How the emphasis shifted from family to orgasm - introducing words like "cucumber size" and "cassava" to young girls • Why sex as a hobby instead of soul connection creates insatiable flesh that can never be satisfied • The finance principle: it takes finance for romance to be enjoyable - sex in one room is physical exercise, sex in air conditioning is lovemaking • Why everything comes from soil (steel, marble, petroleum) and women come from man's rib - she derives sustenance from you even when financially independent • The egg principle: 250 million sperm cells for one egg, the zygote stays in the womb - her physiology explains why she values what you give • Consumptive versus contributory mentality: giving to satisfy her appetite versus building a future together • Why if you take her to Dubai she wants Lisbon, if you pay for first class she's aspiring for a private jet - appetite can never be satisfied • The guardrails that keep marriages alive: mentors, models, word of God, and millions watching your example The conversation reaches its uncomfortable peak with a truth that destroys romantic idealism: you married her assets AND liabilities. There are millions watching, police recognizing you at airports, strangers approaching you in Switzerland - this creates a duty to provide a model. But the real work happens in private, when you realize she's not a small girl just because you're five years older, when you understand that never underestimating the power of a woman is survival wisdom, when you accept that claiming rights without responsibility is what's destroying young marriages today. From the shift in music from soul connection to sexual exploitation, to understanding that women were extracted from men and therefore seek what For the African man seeking to build a marriage that lasts 40 years instead of becoming another divorce statistic, this conversation offers the unfiltered blueprint: respect her as the brilliant person she is, stop trying to win arguments you already won, understand that pepper soup is hot but you finish the bowl, build guardrails of mentors and models, shift from consumptive to contributory mindset, and remember - the wedding ring is a handcuff you chose.

Send us a textReputation travels faster than personal branding when the right people vouch for you. That idea sits at the core of our conversation with Evolve Commerce Club founder Carlos Monteiro, who traces a path from helping Danish companies enter Brazil to building an invite-only network of senior leaders across 48 markets. We dig into how perspective, generosity, and consistent follow-through transform one-off intros into compounding trust—and why that matters most for executives navigating career transitions.We unpack the early stumbles and the breakthrough: focusing on seasoned professionals who once represented a company but now need to represent themselves. Carlos explains how Evolve's paid club delivers tangible value with curated matchmaking, private expert sessions, and monthly off-the-record circles designed for honest asks, not pitches. As member outcomes grew, companies began commissioning targeted dinners and private workshops, giving the community a clear monetization path without sacrificing signal quality.We also get practical about tools and tactics. Despite doubts in parts of Europe, WhatsApp won because it's where people already are, driving daily engagement with minimal friction. Looking ahead, Evolve is investing in an AI agent to summarize profiles, automate thoughtful check-ins, and surface timely connections as careers evolve—augmenting human judgment rather than replacing it. Along the way, members are self-organizing meetups from Lisbon to Dubai, proving the culture is strong enough to scale.If you're a senior leader in transition or a connector at heart, you'll find a playbook for building trust-first networks: vet carefully, reward generosity, meet members where they are, and let results speak louder than branding. Subscribe, share this with a colleague who's rethinking their network strategy, and leave a review to tell us what part of the conversation you want us to go deeper on next.This episode was recorded in the official podcast booth at Web Summit (Lisbon) on November 12, 2025.

The Portuguese artist Joana Vasconcelos is renowned for her large-scale sculptural pieces which have featured in galleries across the world. She has used materials such as fabric, plastic and even tampons to construct her works. In June 2018 her exhibition I'm Your Mirror opened at the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain. For this Joana made a series of new sculptures, including an enormous Venetian-style mask, made of overlapping mirrors. The construction of the huge mask was a process full of challenges as the enormous structure took shape in Joana's Lisbon studio. In this programme Anna McNamee follows Joana through the process of working with the mirrors and explores how the piece is designed, shaped and packed up ready to begin its journey to Bilbao.

https://barcelonazerolimits.com/inclusive-tourism/Skip the stress and bring back the wonder. From the floor of the Abilities Expo in Chicago, we sit down with Julian, a Barcelona-based traveler and tour operator who turned a life-altering accident into a blueprint for joyful, accessible journeys across Spain and Portugal. His philosophy is disarmingly simple: when accessibility is done right, you stop thinking about it and start savoring your trip.Julian opens the hood on his travel packages that stitch together Barcelona, Madrid, and Lisbon using fast trains, accessible vans, and verified hotels. He goes beyond labels to talk measurements that matter: doorway widths, bed heights, ramp gradients, and bathroom layouts that make or break a day.Julian's incomplete C7 injury taught him to design routes with no weak links, from station entry to dinner seating. We also share a little football joy—FC Barcelona pride and a love for the NFL—because travel should feel like a good game day: immersive, exciting, and free of needless friction.If you care about accessible travel, urban design, or simply want to explore Spain and Portugal without worrying about what might go wrong, this conversation delivers practical tips and fresh perspective. Hit play, then share it with someone planning their next adventure. Subscribe, leave a review, and tell us: what's the one barrier you wish the travel industry would fix next?

This episode is sponsored by Lockton, click here to learn more Watch the Full Video on YouTube - click hereAI dominates every conversation in the automotive industry, but very few companies know how to make it truly useful. That focus on real value is what led MIT research scientist Dr. Bryan Reimer to write How to Make AI Useful.The idea began casually over dinner in Lisbon, when someone asked him what he really thought about AI. Bryan didn't dive into predictions about machines taking over. He focused on something more practical: how AI only matters when it's built with people in mind.He breaks AI down into three realities: the excitement of what it could do, the fear that follows when we realize what it might do, and the long, steady work required to make it truly valuable. AI can automate the basics and even create new content, but its real strength is amplifying human skill, not replacing it. The goal isn't an autopilot workforce. It's a copilot.That means the fear that AI will take jobs is misplaced. AI changes work; it doesn't erase it. Just as assisted driving has changed how we drive, rather than removing the driver, AI will shift roles and demand new skills. Bryan points out that layoffs blamed on AI are often just business decisions wearing a convenient mask. The real question is how companies use AI to make work better rather than cheaper.To do that, leaders in automotive need to unlearn old habits. Years of rigid processes, slow decision-making, and fear of change make it hard for AI to deliver value.He argues that useful AI requires trust and transparency. It's hard for any organization to move forward when fear, hidden approvals, and layers of bureaucracy control decisions. If employees can't be trusted to make decisions, AI won't save them. The real challenge is cultural, not technical.Bryan expands the conversation globally. Japan is embracing robotics as companions, while Europe is focusing heavily on privacy. Culture shapes how AI grows, and automotive companies need to pay attention to what consumers value, not just what tech can do.He connects this to China as well. China's speed is not about dumping features into cars. It's about building products people can afford and use. If Western brands only chase faster or cheaper without real value, they will lose.AI becomes useful when companies start small, test real-world problems, and continually improve the tool until it actually helps people do their work. That progress may cost more in the beginning, but better safety features, more accurate data, and enhanced customer experiences rarely come from shortcuts. The goal is not to replace people. It's to build technology that helps them perform at a higher level.Themes discussed in this episode:How AI becomes useful only when it is designed to support human judgment instead of replacing workersWhy the “Wow, Whoa, and Grow” framework helps companies move beyond AI hype and build tools that solve real problemsHow assisted driving proves that advanced technology still depends on human responsibility and oversight to deliver safe, reliable resultsThe importance of unlearning outdated processes before applying AI to existing workflows in automotiveWhy a lack of trust inside automotive organizations slows down AI adoption more than the technology itselfLessons from China's speed in product development and why Western automakers should prioritize value and accessibility over rushed innovationWhat automotive leaders can learn from the pharmaceutical model of testing, releasing, and improving technology through data-driven updates over timeWhy leaders should start small, run narrow...

Send us a textWhat if your meetings, emails, and files didn't disappear into memory but evolved into a living, searchable system of record that actually moved work forward? That's the provocative idea we unpack with David Shim, Co-Founder and CEO at Read AI, who lays out how durable knowledge, personalized models, and a practical “digital twin” can turn everyday chaos into predictable outcomes.We start with the problem everyone feels: notes are scattered, context slips away, and the “why” behind decisions fades. David shows how capturing meetings alongside messages and documents lets patterns emerge you can't spot in isolation. Think instant summaries, action items, and follow-ups that show up where you work, plus multiplayer sharing that aligns teams without busywork. Then we go deeper—multilingual detection across 22+ languages, cultural sentiment baselines so a score means the same thing in Brazil and Belgium, and a narration layer that analyzes how things were said, not just the words themselves.The conversation builds to a future that's already peeking through: storage of intelligence as a company moat, and a digital twin that can answer client questions, preserve momentum during leave, and shrink onboarding from months to days. Agencies track client health before churn, podcasters turn archives into interactive knowledge, and everyday users get immediate value without learning a new workflow. Privacy isn't an afterthought; opt-in and a clear value exchange make participation a rational choice—like using traffic data because it gets you there faster.If you're curious about real productivity gains, faster adoption than smartphones, and AI that amplifies your best work rather than replacing it, this one delivers a roadmap you can use today.

In this episode, I talk about the difference between genuine positivity and emotional bypassing. You know that moment when you tell yourself, “It could be worse” or “I should just be grateful”? While gratitude can be beautiful, using it to skip over pain can actually disconnect you from what's real. We'll explore how to know when it's time to feel your feelings — sadness, anger, loneliness, frustration — and when it's time to shift your thinking. True growth comes from allowing the emotion to move through you, not rushing to replace it with a “good vibe.” You'll learn how to recognize when positivity is helping you and when it's actually keeping you stuck in numbing patterns — like over-drinking or over-doing, instead of creating real peace. I also share when to share how you are feeling with other people.. it's nuanced and you will for sure want to hear this.

Send us a textWhat if most of the economy can be automated without anything we'd call real general intelligence? That provocative idea launches a candid tour with Ben Goertzel through the difference between LLM “breadth” and the kind of generalization that marks true AGI. We unpack why today's models are powerful yet limited, how they'll reshape work in the near term, and what ingredients are missing for systems that reason, invent, and move beyond the data that formed them.We dig into a practical path forward: blending deep neural networks with logic engines, evolutionary learning, and a massive knowledge graph so each part amplifies the others. Ben shares how the Hyperon framework and the ASI chain bring AI on-chain, not just coordinated by it. That means a new AGI language, MeTTa, serving as a smart contract language, enabling formal verification, rich composability, and an integrated reputation layer. Together, these tools aim to embed trust into the stack while opening the door to decentralized AI networks that resist capture by any single company or state.Culture, narrative, and emotion matter just as much as code. A robot-led band nearly got booed off stage until the performance was reframed as exploration, not replacement—proof that context shapes how people accept new tools. We follow that thread into creativity, where AI can mix stems, spark ideas, and widen access for musicians, even as some roles compress. The larger question becomes not whether AI can do the job, but what humans will choose to do for meaning, connection, and joy. Along the way, we weigh openness versus control through a proactionary lens and point you to resources to explore decentralized, trustworthy AI.If this conversation challenged your assumptions or sparked new ones, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a quick review to help others find it.

How do we move quantum computing from scientific milestone to measurable business value? It's not an easy question to answer. When I first started covering this tech even the physicists charged with building such machines doubted the feasibility of the whole idea. That's no longer the case today, but the bar for quantum, especially compared to AI, remains almost impossibly high. This episode was taped before a live audience at Web Summit, Europe's largest tech conference, in Lisbon, Portugal.We Meet:  Alice & Bob Co-founder & CEO Théau Peronnin Planqc Co-founder & CEO Alex Glaetzle  Credits:This episode of SHIFT was produced by Jennifer Strong with help from Emma Cillekens.

In their third session, Zach shifts focus from reparenting the self to rebuilding trust, compassion, and connection in real time. The couple begins by reflecting on the chaos of parenting two neurodivergent children and how exhaustion, overwhelm, and constant caregiving have reshaped their marriage. The wife shares that while parenting has deep purpose and spiritual meaning, it also leaves her feeling “brought to her knees.” The husband expresses gratitude for their new home in Lisbon and admiration for her recent self-care efforts—but his words about “having more respect” land in a complicated way. What unfolds next is a layered conversation about respect versus compassion—how differently each experiences and defines those words, and how love can be both abundant and still “not land.” The wife reveals her fear that her “bucket has a hole”—that trauma keeps love from staying inside. The husband wrestles with the feeling of being both compassionate and exhausted. Zach guides them toward clarity: that differences in meaning, experience, and emotional wiring don't mean disconnection—they're invitations to co-create a shared vocabulary of care. By the end, the trio lands on a metaphor for healing: building an inner “city with a well and garden”. A healthy place inside the self where gratitude, curiosity, and compassion can grow. From there, they imagine a next step; ten intentional days of small, mutual choices to create a shared sense of safety and hope. Key Takeaways Parenting exposes purpose and pressure – Raising neurodivergent kids has deepened their sense of mission but also stretched their capacity for joy. Respect and compassion can get tangled – The husband's expression of regained respect triggers the wife's old shame wounds, revealing how love languages can misfire even when intentions are good. Compassion must land – It's not about whether compassion exists, but whether it's experienced and felt. Trauma leaves “holes in the bucket” – The wife describes how past pain can make love hard to hold, even when it's generously offered. Shame cycles need space – Zach helps her imagine creating a small pause between shame and reaction—a mindful sliver that grows with practice. Safety over sameness – Each partner's version of health looks different, but the shared goal is to meet in a “healthy place,” not to drag the other toward one definition. Gratitude and agency go together – The husband learns that his peace can't depend on her choices; it must come from cultivating gratitude within himself. Ten-day goals – They agree to take small, concrete steps—ten days at a time—to make life together a little “more good” and a little “less bad.” Learn more about your ad choices.

Most of us were taught that being selfish is wrong, that putting ourselves first means we're taking something away from others. But what if that definition is completely backwards? In this episode, I talk about what “selfish” really means, and why caring for yourself isn't taking from anyone, it's how you stop running on empty. You'll learn how to recognize when guilt or people pleasing is driving your choices, how to redefine selfishness as self-care, and why meeting your own needs first actually helps everyone around you. I also share personal stories about how this lesson has shaped my own life and work. If you've ever felt guilty for saying no, resting, or putting yourself first, this episode will help you see that honoring your needs isn't selfish — it's essential.
