E123: Building a Better Europe: Power, Responsibility, and the Founder We Need Now with Vincent Weir

What does it mean to be a super-connector — in a way that actually creates value?

In this episode, Vincent Weir (Nordic Science Capital, Growth Minds) breaks down the mechanics behind strong networks, why rituals and commitment matter more than “networking”, and how storytelling can move people - and markets.

We also go big: Europe’s cycles of rise/fall, why AI could enable a Renaissance 2.0, and why the next chapter depends on turning vision into weekly traction.
