29 AUG 2024 · In this episode of The We Are Innovation Podcast, host Federico N. Fernández interviewed Jonas Herby, a Special Consultant at CEPOS, a Danish think tank. Herby, an expert in regulation and socio-economic analysis, discussed his research on the significant increase in EU legislation since the Maastricht Treaty.
The conversation covered various aspects of EU regulation, beginning with the staggering 729 percent increase in EU legislation since 1992. Herby delved into the factors driving this growth and examined the von der Leyen Commission's regulatory activity, which has seen a 14 percent increase since 2020 despite claims to simplify laws. He also explored the shift from directives to regulations in EU lawmaking and its implications for member states.
Throughout the discussion, Herby addressed the principles of subsidiarity and proportionality, questioning whether the current trend in EU regulation adheres to these principles. He offered insights into the concept of the EU becoming a “regulatory superpower” and its potential consequences. The impact of EU regulations on Denmark's sovereignty and ability to create tailored national policies was also a key topic, with Herby noting that EU regulations account for about 60 percent of the total growth in Danish regulatory volume.
To conclude the episode, Herby responded to a thought-provoking question about citizens' willingness to accept regulators treating them as unable to protect their own rights. He then offered his recommendations for policymakers at both the EU and national levels to address the issues raised in his report, providing listeners with a comprehensive and insightful exploration of the complexities surrounding EU regulation and its effects on member states.

25 SEP 2023 · In the latest episode of The We Are Innovation Podcast, hosted by Federico N. Fernández, we dove deep into the complex intersections of science, technology, and the global urgency for sustainable initiatives. We had the privilege of hosting Robert D. Atkinson, the founder and president of the Information Technology and Innovation Foundation (ITIF). As a spearhead of a world-renowned think tank that shapes debates on technological innovation and public policy, Robert is an internationally recognized scholar and a widely published author.
During our engaging discussion, Robert shed light on his latest paper, "Beyond Force: A Realist Pathway Through the Green Transition." He unveiled the inspirations and motivations that led him to write such a significant piece in the current climate discourse. We journeyed through the avenues of how the green transition can be adapted to cater to the needs of developing countries, ensuring that as the world moves forward, no nation is left behind.
Furthermore, we visited the intricate challenges of addressing climate change with scalable solutions that can have a global impact. Robert dispelled the common notion that our present technological arsenal is sufficient to combat climate change. We also deliberated on the existential threat posed by climate change and broached the topic of climate fear and its implications on growth and development. This episode is a treasure trove for those keen on understanding the nuances of technological innovation in the fight against climate change.

31 AUG 2023 · In a riveting episode of The We Are Innovation Podcast, host Federico N.
