The European Commission Legal Interoperability Team is cordially inviting you to join us for the May BLSI Virtual Breakfast. This will be part of a webinar series aiming to explore the concept of Law as Code and its significance for digital-ready policymaking, as illustrated through real-case examples.

 

BLSI

This first webinar will serve to establish a common knowledge-foundation regarding Law as Code in the context of digital-ready policymaking and on why semantic technologies should be involved. Our esteemed panel of speakers will also share their practical experiences and insights from some pilot implementations of Law as Code.

We will allocate time during the webinar to facilitate a panel discussion among our speakers and also address your questions. Together, we can draw insights and identify the best steps forward, setting the scene for the next webinar in the series based on your interests and feedback!
