Europe’s Digital Future
In recent years, the European Union has unveiled a series of ambitious legislative and regulatory packages to rein in problems endemic to the new digital economy. Can leading the world in tech governance help to establish Europe's place in the twenty-first century?
Recently, Anu Bradford, a professor at Columbia Law School and the author of The Brussels Effect: How the European Union Rules the World, sat down with European Commission Executive Vice-President Margrethe Vestager, one of the European Union’s leading regulatory and economic-policy minds, to discuss key developments and trends in the digital economy.
