The event was the first of a series of annual conferences on Digital Innovation.<\/p>\n<p>The outline of the event is the following:<\/p>\n<p>Digital innovation is permeating a big portion of the economy, reshaping the way we live, work, interact. Two paradigms currently stand out as potentially disruptive: the emergence of Distributed Ledger Technologies (DLTs) such as blockchain, and the increasingly pervasive use of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning in a variety of applications, from e-commerce to self-driving cars. Policymakers find it increasingly difficult to keep track of this evolution given the breathtaking pace of innovation, and the challenge of dealing with algorithms, collective intelligence, and often a patchy and uncertain set of legal rules. The College of Europe Chair in Digital Innovation organizes a one-day conference to discuss the challenges and opportunities for innovation in the digital age. Key themes addressed by the conference:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>What are the key opportunities and challenges of DLTs and Artificial Intelligence?<\/li>\n<li>Is Europe competitive in the deployment of these technologies?<\/li>\n<li>What new forms of innovation may emerge from the diffusion of these disruptive technologies?<\/li>\n<li>Is the EU legal system well-equipped to cope with the peculiarities of these technologies?<\/li>\n<li>What can the EU do to harness the potential of DLTs and Artificial Intelligence to strengthen the Single Market and promote better economic, social and environmental outcomes?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Balazs was speaking at the The Future of Digital Innovation in the European Union&nbsp; conference&nbsp;about policy issues of blockchain technology.
