Tech and Society Summit - Opening hearing

On 1 October 2024, 41 civil society organisations – including EDRi – co-hosted the Tech and Society Summit. Throughout the day, EU decision-makers, journalists and civil society held discussions, joined panels and participated in activities that fostered dialogue about the intersections of technology, society and the environment. After the opening words by the organisers, MEP Kim van Sparrentak (Greens/EFA), MEP Anna Cavazzini, (Greens/EFA) and MEP Bruno Gonçalves (S&D) took the stage to share their visions for technology and society in the coming years. MEP van Sparrentak spoke about countering addictive designs, and called for less siloed approached between environmental policies and technology regulation. MEP Cavazzini focused on demands around the right to repair of digital devices, and MEP Gonçalves made connections with fiscal justice to ensure accountability of Big Tech companies and to finance social protection in the EU.
