AI could be transformative for Europe’s growth and competitiveness if we adopt it quickly and build our own capabilities. European innovators like Domyn have a key role to play. I had a great discussion with its CEO Uljan Sharka.

People often choose Frankfurt for career opportunities, but stay for its quality of life and sense of community. Culture helps make a city feel like home. It certainly does for me. This was my main message at the panel discussion at the Season Opening of the Alte Oper.
