ITSPmagazine Europe: The Transatlantic Broadcast
Where cybersecurity, technology, and society meet — across borders and perspectives.
About the Show
The Transatlantic Broadcast is the flagship podcast of ITSPmagazine Europe — a new editorial initiative dedicated to cybersecurity, technology, and society through a distinctly European lens.
Hosted by Marco Ciappelli, Sean Martin, and Rob Black — and recorded between Florence, London, Los Angeles, and beyond — the show explores the stories, policies, and people shaping digital life across Europe. With our rotating host format and guests from academia, public policy, private sector, and civil society, we highlight European perspectives while drawing occasional comparisons to developments in the U.S. and beyond.
The Hosts
Marco Ciappelli - Co-Founder & CMO, ITSPmagazine
Broadcasting from Florence and Los Angeles, Marco brings a sociological perspective to technology discourse, examining how digital transformation intersects with culture, politics, and human behavior. His background in Political Science and Sociology of Communication informs discussions that go beyond the technical to explore the societal implications of our digital choices.
Sean Martin - Co-Founder & Editor-in-Chief, ITSPmagazine
Based in the United States, Sean anchors the conversation with deep cybersecurity expertise and editorial insight, providing the American perspective on global technology trends and their security implications.
Rob Black - European Correspondent
From London, Rob offers the UK and European viewpoint on technology policy, digital rights, and the evolving landscape of cybersecurity across the continent.
What We Explore
In our rotating host format, we dive deep into the stories, policies, and people shaping digital life across Europe:
European Digital Sovereignty: How Europe approaches data protection, AI regulation, and tech governance
Cybersecurity Across the Continent: Examining European approaches to digital security, privacy, and risk
Technology & European Society: The sociological impact of digital transformation on European communities, work, and culture
European Policy & Innovation: How regulation shapes innovation across the continent
The Human Element: Stories of Europeans building, securing, and living within our digital infrastructure
Our Approach
We believe technology is never just about technology. Every digital decision reflects cultural values, political priorities, and social assumptions. Through conversations with guests from academia, public policy, private sector, and civil society, we explore these dimensions and many more.
Sometimes we agree. Sometimes we compare. But we always explore.
Our discussions acknowledge that Europe offers diverse approaches to technology challenges. Each region brings distinct cultural perspectives, regulatory philosophies, and innovation traditions that shape how technology develops and integrates into society. By bringing these European viewpoints into dialogue, with occasional transatlantic context, we create a richer understanding of Europe's digital future.
Featured Topics & Guests
Upcoming discussions include:
European AI regulation and its global impact
Cybersecurity workforce development across continents
Digital rights activism in different political contexts
The sociology of remote work and digital collaboration
Critical infrastructure protection: national vs. international approaches
Our guest list spans academics, policymakers, industry leaders, civil society advocates, and the technologists building tomorrow's digital world.
