Research activities

He is dedicating his thesis to the study of the digital dimension of bilateral trade agreements negotiated by the European Union with third countries. His approach is focussing more particularly on the regulation of trade in IT services, access to telecoms services and networks, the regulatory framework for electronic commerce and the regulation of on line author’s rights.

His interest relates more generally to the law on external relations and the common trade policy of the European Union. He is also interested in European regulation developments in the digital economy, in particular concerning data protection, net neutrality and the responsibility of online intermediaries.
