George Metakides - New Policy Directions for European Digital Sovereignty

George Metakides, President of Digital Enlightenment Forum and Visiting Professor, University of Southampton, presented “New Policy Directions for European Digital Sovereignty” in the closing session of the workshop. He called attention to the fact that the workshop on COVID-19 took place on May 14th-the day of St. Corona of all days. According to him, “the quest for digital sovereignty was accelerated by the pandemic, and connectivity was personified by the big platforms like Google and Amazon.” Especially after the pandemic, “we need to make sure that they serve the public interest.”
