09-21, 14:00–14:45 (Europe/Berlin), Henny-Brenner-Saal
Language: English

The talk takes a dive into the EU acronym soup to explore new and upcoming European legislation.


Over the past legislative cycle the European Commission has put out a plethora of initiatives, many of which will become relevant soon, apply partially or are in full effect. From the CRA, NIS2, eIDAS and AI Act to eco-design and rules for so-called VLOPs: pretty much everything got an overhaul.

This talk aims at explaining the bigger picture of internal market regulation and its recent changes and takes a deeper look into initiatives with impact on open-source software.
