The EU has started to recognise the urgent need to regulate Big Tech’s and the fast-advancing artificial intelligence. With legislation such as the Artificial Intelligence Act and the Data Act, the EU is taking some steps towards ensuring that the digital sector operates under the same framework of fair play and the public interest as the rest of the economy. The same EU is, in parallel, negotiating digital trade rules with countries across the globe that enable Big Tech companies to maintain control over data and to keep their algorithms or source codes secret.

The event will explore how the EU’s global digital trade agenda interacts with the EU’s efforts to regulate artificial intelligence and Big tech.
