LDS Technology Workshop

Legislation and regulations for data spaces: an environment for the development of a European Data Market

As part of the regulation of the European digital single market, the EU lawmakers have agreed on a range of legal instruments aiming to foster the development of a European data market. These legal instruments derive from the European Commission’s Strategy for Data, which comprises a series of resolutions, related communications and declarations outlining principles that pave the way for legislation.

This workshop will aim to give a panorama of the regulations that have been adopted or that are still in the pipeline for implementation in the data market (Digital Services Act (DSA), Directive on Copyright in the Digital Single Market, Data Act (DA), Data Governance Act (DGA), General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Artificial Intelligence Act). It will also provide keys to understanding the interactions between these different legal instruments, their impact on the landscapes of Data Spaces and Artificial Intelligence, and how they will influence the data economy.
