Two questions are gaining traction in the EU digital policy debate: is EU tech regulation responsible for the gap between the EU and other economies? If so, should the EU take on a deregulatory agenda? @digitalmario.bsky.social lays out an economic framework www.intereconomics.eu/contents/yea...

In this @intereconomics.bsky.social paper, I share thoughts on the EU deregulatory strategy in tech. Currently there is confusion on what regulation wants to achieve: efficiency or value distribution. Without clarity, deregulation is necessarily suboptimal www.intereconomics.eu/contents/yea...

📊 Chart of the week: Career paths of highly cited researchers 👩‍🔬🧑‍🏫 This Analysis by @digitalmario.bsky.social and Nina Ruer uses data on two sample groups of researchers to highlight where the EU may practically focus its efforts to attract US talent. 🔗 buff.ly/jDTOeXs #EconSky

In this new @bruegel.bsky.social analysis, Nina Ruer and I look at US-based researchers’ educational path to speculate on relocation likelihood. We find that about 9% of top researchers and up to 19% of early-career in elite uni have education ties with Europe. www.bruegel.org/analysis/how...

How much research talent could Europe grab from the US?

Up to a fifth of researchers in top US universities have previously studied in Europe; they might be persuaded to return

All Europe should stand by Ukraine and its President. Now or never.

In my latest column for @bruegel.bsky.social I argue that, on tech regulation, the EU should stop apologising and go on the offensive. The case for EU regulation killing innovation (as recently put forward by the US) is weak. www.bruegel.org/first-glance...

bruegel.org

On tech regulation, the European Union should be bolder

The EU should stop apologising for its tech laws, promoting instead their stabilising and fair-competition aspects

*Anecdote alert* This afternoon, with my students, we discussed the DSA. One of them said that “the DSA is ok-ish, but, TBH, if tomorrow I would wake up and all social networks had disappeared, I would think that we are in a better world”. 50% of the class sided with him. Age bracket: 23-26 yo

I am looking at this picture, and I cannot but ask: is a Commission with only White members truly representative of the EU demographics?

Glad to see BlueSky is picking up! Let me drop a question/survey: Should X be abandoned? Or better to multi-home, and still listen to what may soon become an extremist echo-chamber? Eager to hear views :-)
