Europe already produces world-class technology companies. The mistake is assuming future winners will look obvious before they become winners. In this episode of This Week in European Tech, Dan Bowyer and Mads Jensen of SuperSeed speak with Joe Schorge , Founder and Managing Partner at Isomer Capital , about why the best investors focus less on predicting outliers and more on building exposure to exceptional founders, technologies and ecosystems. Joe shares why Europe's next trillion-dollar company is probably already operating today, what Amazon and Google teach us about identifying future winners and why diversification remains one of the most powerful tools in venture capital. The conversation also covers AI sovereignty, Anthropic's model shutdown, DeepSeek's $7 billion round, Mistral's latest raise and Europe's position in the global AI race.
