About this episode
The episode discusses the challenges facing EU economic integration and the potential for Europe to compete with the US and China.
Europe has the resources, the talent, and the scale to rival the US and China — so why doesn't it act like it? In this episode, recorded live in Milan with the Adam Smith Society, Ricardo Silvestre sits down with Marco Cecchi de'Rossi, an investment committee member at Arpinge SpA and board member at SIDAM for a wide-ranging conversation on what's really holding Europe back. They dissect the non-tariff barriers still fragmenting the single market, the case for AI in classrooms and workplaces (and where regulation should draw the line), patent enforcement against unreliable markets, and what the corporate board of the future needs to look like in an age of multi-crisis and rapid change. This podcast is produced by the European Liberal Forum in collaboration with Movimento Liberal Social and Fundacja Liberté!, with the financial support of the European Parliament.
