Work, care and constant availability compete for the same limited time. As mental-health-related incapacity grows, six questions examine how Europe distributes pressure, protects recovery and allocates the costs when people can no longer cope.
Nvidia’s investment in Doctolib sharpens Europe’s innovation dilemma: accelerating growth while preserving room for competing technologies. Beyond research funding, European breakthroughs need first customers, credible validation and access to infrastructure that allows tomorrow’s alternatives to compete.
Who can explain, challenge or correct a decision in increasingly automated finance? This Altair Media series examines whether customers, employees and supervisors retain meaningful control as AI reshapes Europe’s banks and financial platforms.

Siemens and Nvidia’s new industrial AI applications in Erlangen give Europe’s Strategic Seven a concrete reference point.
