Aims and Scope:
This workshop addresses the challenges and opportunities of digitalization from
the perspectives of three different stakeholders: citizens, companies and regulators.
Nine leading experts in science, technology, and policy address key problems arising
in our digital society. They provide a scientific understanding of the underlying
social phenomena, design technologies to solve privacy problems, and discuss ways
to implement these solutions in policy making.
Discussions:
The workshop will have three moderated discussion sessions in order to enable
a dialogue on these topics.
