IIC Italy Chapter Webinar: Insights for a balanced regulation: considering platforms benefits and protection needs.

This joint event of the IIC Italian Chapter and Agcom (the Italian Communications Regulatory Authority) aims to explore the benefits produced by the digital ecosystem and, in particular, by the rise of online platforms, beyond the immediate and obvious new business models and commercial offerings. This line of inquiry stems from a conviction that any regulation of the digital environment must be proportionate, i.e. able to balance fundamental rights and freedoms, without affecting the technological development and economic growth of platforms.

The event aims explore the indirect benefits (second order positive externalities) arising from specific online services in relation to different fields through four parrallel thematic sessions. 

Session 1: Economics, Finance, Labour
Session 2: Society, Culture, Environmen: Social Networks
Session 3: Society, Culture, Environment: SVODs
Session 4: Law, Democracy, Institutions

We look forward to welcoming you at the event.
