About

Jean Monnet Chair Digital Single Market and the Free Flow of Information dig_INFlow explores how the EU is addressing the flow of information in the context of the Digital Single Market (DSM), and how it can improve the approach to ensure the safe and enabling environment for the communication.

We respond to the need to raise public awareness of the regulatory framework for accessing and using information online as part of the digital transformation.

Our objective is to deepen  the knowledge of the DSM law and policy  and to share it with market participants and beneficiaries, primarily via teaching at university level, as well as to advance the research at the intersection of the economic objectives of the single market and the free flow of information, in the context of fundamental rights.
