Strategy for Europe – Fit for the Digital Age
The Commission has announced in its 2020 Work Programme that it will put forward a “European Strategy for Europe – Fit for the Digital Age”, setting out its vision on how to address the challenges and opportunities brought about by digitalisation.
Boosting the single market for digital services and introducing regulatory rules for the digital economy should be addressed in this strategy. It is expected to build on issues covered by the e-commerce directive and the platform-to-business regulation.
White Paper on Artificial Intelligence
The White Paper on Artificial Intelligence (AI) will aim to support its development and uptake in the EU, as well as to ensure that European values are fully respected. It should identify key opportunities and challenges, analyse regulatory options and put forward proposals and policy actions related to, e.g. ethics, transparency, safety and liability.
European Strategy for Data
The purpose of the Data Strategy would be to explore how to make the most of the enormous value of non-personal data as an ever-expanding and re-usable asset in the digital economy. It will build in part on the free flow of non-personal data regulation.
