Before the event on "Power of law or law of power? Why we need European leadership in governing technology globally" takes place, a selected group of activists, researchers, experts and public sector representatives from the larger field of tech governance across the EU will come together to formulate the challenge for the next EU and to devise key elements for the EU's governance of digital space. Against this backdrop, Univ.-Prof. Nikolaus Forgó is invited to focus on the long-term implications and necessities, as well as on linking up questions of ethics with tech governance considerations. In that context he will also consider human rights, the civic space, the rule of law as well as the EU's foreign policy and its global role.
