The tamer of big tech: Interview with Margrethe Vestager

Radio Schuman sat down with Margrethe Vestager, the woman at the forefront of shaping the EU’s competition and digital policies for nearly a decade.

As the outgoing Executive Vice-President of the European Commission prepares to leave Brussels, she shares her reflections on the challenges ahead, including the state aid tax cases in which the Commission encountered setbacks.

We also delve into the future of AI in Europe, the defence of her track record, and the gender imbalance in the nominations for the next EU commissioners.

Radio Schuman is hosted and produced by Maïa de la Baume, with journalist and production assistant Eleonora Vasques, audio editing by Zacharia Vigneron and music by Alexandre Jas.
