Workshop — Towards a Competitive Digital EU: Regulatory Effectiveness in Practice

The SmartLawHub, in partnership with the Brussels Privay Hub is organising a workshop in connection with the forthcoming special issue Towards a Competitive Digital EU: Addressing and Overcoming the Barriers to Regulatory Effectiveness, recently announced in Computer Law & Security Review.

The event will take place at HEC Paris on 23–24 March and will bring together academics, practitioners, and policy-oriented researchers working on digital regulation, governance of emerging technologies, and the broader question of regulatory effectiveness in the EU digital ecosystem.

The workshop is intended as a focused exchange around ongoing research, draft contributions to the special issue, and adjacent work on data governance, AI regulation, enforcement capacity, and competitiveness challenges faced by European actors. The objective is less formal presentation than substantive discussion, cross-fertilisation of perspectives, and sharpening of analytical approaches ahead of publication.

A detailed agenda will be posted shortly. For further information or participation inquiries, please contact the organisers directly through SmartLawHub.
