Europe's AI opportunity is a new podcast mini-series is brought to you by Sifted and Nebius, an AI infrastructure company building full-stack cloud for the AI era.

Over the next three episodes, Sifted's senior reporter Daphné Leprince-Ringuet will be exploring the potential of AI for Europe's enterprises.

This episode was recorded live from VivaTech in Paris — France’s flagship tech event that brings together startups, corporates and industrial leaders.

This episode focuses on whether, and how, European enterprises are adopting AI, and what this means for the AI startups they partner with — or, in some cases, don’t.

Joining the conversation were Claire Nouet, cofounder and COO of Pathway, Olivier Gomez, cofounder and CEO of IAC.AI, and Anubhav Maheshwari, head of venture partnerships at Nebius.

We discussed the most effective ways to measure and communicate trust in AI systems, how existing frameworks can help validate new AI systems and how the technology poses new questions for mitigating risk.

Participating in the discussion were:

• Song Hwee Chia, deputy CEO of Temasek, a global investment firm headquartered in Singapore.
• Sebastian Hallensleben, chief trust officer at AI test lab Resaro.
• Dr Kerim Galal, executive vice president at corporate development across strategy, AI, M&A and in-house consulting at German machine tools and laser tech company Trumpf.
• Dr Frauke Goll, managing director at the AppliedAI Institute for Europe GmbH.
