KeyNote
Competition is a key driver for diversity and innovation
The growth of the digital economy provides an opportunity to make markets more competitive, as new entrants and business models emerge, spurring traditional businesses to raise their game or exit. The diversity of businesses, digital products, and services has the potential to deliver innovative and cheaper products, as well as faster and better services. However, a changing business landscape and the digital way of doing business can introduce new and sophisticated forms of anti-competitive behaviour, data breaches, and cyberattacks. There is a risk that vulnerable individuals may face greater harm. New or revised digital policies and regulations are required that are flexible, fit for purpose, and advance gender equality, inclusivity, and sustainability.
Drawing on her international experience and expert knowledge, Nimisha presents on:
- Making markets competitive in the digital economy
- Policies and regulations in the digital economy
- Promoting gender equality in policy-making
