The Iberoamerican University Foundation (FUNIBER) will organize, next March 11 at 16:00 hours (GMT+1), the webinar in Spanish “Internet Services Under Platforms: Digital Markets Act (DMA)”.
The session will be given by Miguel López Coronado and Pilar Rodríguez Pita and is part of the Jean Monnet Chair “Telecommunications Policy in the EU and the Information Society” held by the European University of the Atlantic (UNEATLANTICO), which is facing its last academic year in 2024/2025.
Today, there are large online platforms that act as “gatekeepers” in the digital markets. The Digital Markets Act (DMA) is a landmark regulation introduced by the European Commission (EC) and came into force on March 6, 2024. This law aims to ensure that these platforms behave fairly online. Together with the Digital Services Act (DSA), the Digital Markets Act is one of the cornerstones of the European digital strategy.
The event is held in collaboration with the Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana de Puerto Rico (International Iberoamerican University, UNIB), the Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana de México (International Iberoamerican University of Mexico, UNINI Mexico), the Fundación Universitaria Internacional de Colombia (International University Foundation of Colombia, UNINCOL), the Universidade Internacional do Cuanza (International University of Cuanza, UNIC), and the Universidad de La Romana (University of La Romana, UNIROMANA).
The conference is free and open to all those interested in the subject, and will be broadcast live in each country where FUNIBER has presence. The broadcasting schedules can be consulted in this link. To participate, it is necessary to register:
