In an era defined by connectivity, the disruptive uptake of AI, data and innovation, it is essential for two of the world’s most advanced economic powers such as the United States and the European Union to exchange views on their respective digital regulation initiatives, in a shared effort to address the complex challenges posed by the digital realm while fostering common values.

With the Transatlantic Trade and Tech Council (TTC) marking significant steps in the EU-US collaboration, this Roundtable discussion will bring together Members of the European Parliament, European Commission and US administration representatives as well as EIF Business and Associate members, with the aim of exploring a common approach on digital regulation for a safe, innovative, and globally influential digital ecosystem.
