Monday 28 September Day One Plenary Agenda
Panel 3: GROWTH & SIMPLIFICATION – AI and Digital Omnibuses and beyond
- What does the EU economy need from its digital regulatory framework to scale globally, and how are the current simplification reforms responding to that need?
- What are the AI Act, Digital Omnibus, GDPR/ePrivacy and Data Act simplification efforts delivering in terms of reducing fragmentation, overlaps and improving predictability for operators across the EU?
- Beyond the Omnibuses, what further work is needed – and is the Digital Fitness Check the right framework to address remaining barriers to simplification?
