Today's episode is hosted by Chris Hackett and they are joined on the podcast by Maryem Nasri, Global Data Governance Coordinator at Ericsson, Diane Reynolds, Head of Business Development Group Risk at SEB and Mathias Goeltzner, Regional OBS Coordinator at Tesla. The conversation explores how organisations navigate the tension between regulation and innovation, particularly as legislation continues to evolve at speed. By examining the practical realities behind compliance demands, the episode looks at how teams maintain momentum without triggering a red flag scenario that disrupts growth or strategy. The guests share broad reflections on aligning governance with innovation-driven objectives. The exchange highlights structural considerations that help businesses stay resilient, including cross-functional collaboration, clear accountability and early integration of regulatory thinking. As the discussion widens, it considers how modern enterprises can foster adaptability while ensuring that regulation and innovation reinforce rather than undermine each other.
