Liability and Emerging Digital Technologies: The EU Perspective

Prof. Lillà Montagnani has been a member of the Expert Group on Liability and New Technologies appointed by the European Commission in 2018 and contributed to the Report on "Liability for Artificial Intelligence and other emerging digital technologies" (2019). She was NYU Global Hauser Research Fellow in the a.y. 2019-2020 and is currently Transatlantic Technology Law Forum Fellow at Stanford Law School with a project aiming at identifying the normative foundations on which a liability regime for new technologies should be built on. In doing so, she focuses on the current European liability regime and seeks first to ascertain whether it is fit for the new digital environment and, second, envisages possible measures to face the new reality balancing the need to minimize the risks deriving from the use of EDTs with the need to capitalize on the benefits of innovation.

The event will take part this Wednesday, October 22 at 11:30 am (EST). Register in advance for the meeting here.
