Bird & Bird will host our annual Regulatory & Public Affairs seminar at our Brussels office on Tuesday 3 December.
To mark the start of a new five-year EU regulatory cycle, this seminar aims to gather representatives of the European institutions, industry leaders and other stakeholders to debate highly topical issues around the future legislative framework for online platforms and communications networks in Europe.
The seminar will open with a keynote speech by a senior representative of the European Commission outlining plans and expectations for the digital work programme of the new College of Commissioners. This will be followed by two dedicated panel discussions. There will be time available for the audience to ask questions at the end of each panel. The event will finish with a networking lunch offered to all participants.
NB: Participation to the event is free of charge, but advance registration is required.
