Communication activities
The Foundation designs, builds, and evaluates experimental deployments of distributed ledger technologies that directly contribute to public welfare, such as improved e-Government services, climate change mitigation technologies, micro-payment systems to integrate historically excluded persons into the global economy, and more. The Foundation also engages in regulatory advocacy efforts at the German, EU, and international levels. The aim of this work is to help ensure that financial regulations, monetary regulations, tax laws, consumer protection laws and data privacy laws are applied to cryptocurrencies, distributed ledgers, and machine learning technologies in ways that protect the public interest while also advancing and promoting innovation.

Meetings
Meetings
2 meetings found. Download meetings
The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.
1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
