Over the past few years, the EU has proposed and adopted a raft of new digital legislation e.g. the Data Act, the Data Governance Act, the Digital Services Act, the Digital Markets Act, and the AI Act. There remain, however, a number of uncertainties surrounding this new digital framework. There remain uncertainties, for example, concerning how each of the new laws will relate to each other, as well as to existing laws. Equally, it remains unclear as to how this new framework will function in practice in the regulation of digital technologies and their use. In this regard, this panel assembles representatives from industry, legal practice, politics, academia, and civil society to consider the issues surrounding the effective realisation of the new digital framework.
