About the interview
The US and Europe are taking noticeably different approaches to AI. While American companies are racing to build, test and scale new technology, Europe has put greater emphasis on regulation, privacy, sovereignty and responsible adoption.
But is this really a choice between innovation and compliance? And as AI moves from experiments into real operations, which approach will prove better equipped for the long term?
In this REAL TALK, B2B tech influencer and TECH IMPACT TV host Evan Kirstel joins William Delaney to compare how AI is developing on both sides of the Atlantic. Drawing on Evan's work across enterprise technology, healthcare, manufacturing and AI, they'll explore what businesses can learn from both approaches — and whether moving fast and building responsibly really have to be opposing ideas.

B2B Tech Influencer, Creator & Host of TECH IMPACT TV | AI, Enterprise Technology & Digital Health
Evan Kirstel is a B2B tech influencer, creator and host of TECH IMPACT TV, a nationwide TV show on Fox Business and Bloomberg, and of the What's Up with Tech? podcast. He covers AI, enterprise technology, cloud, telecom and digital health for an audience of about 700,000 followers, and regularly speaks with technology leaders about how emerging technologies move from promising ideas into practical, real-world applications.
His recent work has explored many of the questions at the heart of this conversation: the EU AI Act, responsible AI, digital sovereignty, enterprise AI governance and the challenge of moving AI from pilots into production. Across healthcare and manufacturing, he has also examined how organizations can adopt AI quickly without losing sight of trust, security or the people responsible for putting it to work.
This gives Evan a useful vantage point for looking across the Atlantic, not simply at who is moving faster, but at what each approach gets right, where each creates friction, and what businesses can learn from both.
