Above & Beyond Hangout #41 // One Year of AI ACT

One year after its political agreement, the AI Act is no longer just a headline—it’s becoming a reality for European startups. But how much has actually changed on the ground? In this Hangout, we bring together perspectives from investors, legal experts, and startups to reflect on how the AI Act is shaping innovation, compliance, and go-to-market strategies.
We’ll hear from those navigating this shift firsthand—what’s clear, what’s still uncertain, and how different players are preparing for what’s next. Join us for a practical look at what the AI Act means for the startup ecosystem, and how we can build with regulation in mind without losing agility.
