Too fair or too far? The age of the Digital Fairness Act

11 December 2024

​The European Commission has announced it would propose a Digital Fairness Act (DFA) during the 2024-2029 mandate. The law aims to address critical gaps in the EU’s tech policy framework, focusing on areas like targeted advertising, addictive design practices, and dark patterns. This upcoming legislation, partly influenced by the EU’s fitness check for consumer law, will have significant implications for businesses, particularly startups that rely on digital marketing.

​This event will be an opportunity to dive into the EU’s latest digital policy proposal and explore how to balance fairness with certainty and economic growth.
