AI governance in a competitive world: Balancing innovation, regulation and ethics

The EU AI Act with its risk-based approach, sets a precedent for regulating AI by categorising applications based on their potential risks to individuals and society. However, stringent regulations risk slowing down innovation, pushing talent and investment elsewhere, and limiting Europe’s AI leadership.  
1. Navigating the EU AI Act: How can regulators ensure the EU remains an AI leader while implementing risk-tiered regulations that prevent harm without stifling technological progress?  
2. Competitiveness vs Overregulation: With global AI competition intensifying, what policy strategies can ensure that AI startups and enterprises thrive without unnecessary compliance burdens?  
3. Ethical AI as a competitive advantage: Can responsible AI practices become a strategic differentiator for European companies, positioning them as global leaders in trustworthy, human-centric AI deployment?
