The EU has been prolifically legislating on the digital sector over the last mandate with landmark laws like the DSA, DMA, and the AI Act. During the same period, the Chinese government has also moved fast to regulate its own digital sector, with detailed rules on AI, privacy, cybersecurity, etc.

In the context of CERRE’s ongoing flagship project on the Global Governance for the Digital Ecosystems, CERRE will host on May 30, 2024, 12:30-13:30 for a webinar Professor Angela Zhang, author of the new book “High Wire: How China regulates Big Tech and governs its economy” and Werner Stengg, Senior Expert in Executive Vice President Margrethe Vestager’s cabinet.

The discussion will be moderated by CERRE Director General Bruno Liebhaberg and will focus on uncovering the similarities and differences in the approaches taken by the EU and by Chinese authorities on regulating the digital sector.
