By embracing global supply chain diversification, open trade and strategic international cooperation, the EU can reinforce access to essential medicines while preserving its competitiveness.

Digital Economy

The European Commission’s upcoming Digital Fairness Act (DFA) is a crucial moment to reinforce consumer protection without adding unnecessary regulatory layers.

A well-designed DFA must focus on regulatory coherence, legal certainty and risk-based intervention. By streamlining the rulebook and avoiding duplicative obligations, the EU can strengthen trust, preserve innovation and enhance competitiveness. Learn how a simplification-first approach can uphold digital fairness while supporting Europe’s broader goals of economic growth and digital leadership.
