About

Following the European Commission’s proposals for the Digital Services (DSA) and Digital Markets (DMA) Acts and the publication of CERRE’s reports on the DSA and DMA, the latter of which has been referenced in the Commission’s DMA Impact Assessment Report, CERRE is hosting a series of livestreamed online ‘rendez-vous’ events to debate the DSA and DMA package. This series will delve into specific aspects of each proposal with key players from the online platform and telecommunication industries, national regulators, policy makers, European startups, international stakeholders and academics.

The first ‘rendez-vous’ of the series, “Digital Markets Act: Setting the right framework for a fair online economy”, will draw from CERRE’s DMA recommendations to discuss how to make economic regulation fit for the digital age, deep-diving into the DMA’s objectives and criteria for large gatekeeper platforms.

The debate, moderated by CERRE Tech, Media, Telecom & Mobility Director Lara Natale, will be livestreamed on this page (see below) and via YouTube on Tuesday 19 January at 16:00 CET.

Viewers can ask questions via Sli.do here, using the hashtag #CERREDMA.
