strategy

with the aim to tear down regulatory walls and move from 28 national
markets to a single one. The DSM strategy includes 16 targeted regulatory
and non-regulatory actions, from privacy to cyber-security, from ICT
standardization to the collaborative economy.   In line with the "Better
Regulation" principles, the European Commission is conducting a series of
consultations
<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001UAt4xZzZGMnT7WPSmkdBcgpScmqrg-zis5lGgZnvQbGzb30QCYDDneJneOEJt_WK9kAK2RwbJX-iUiZ1awW_WQ3t6jBewAlEc5UKih4s6q53UiT1y8mb1fY9-g8lZsFj6aRmypXDYs24Hl3No4QJfzZlnMVy2zHKG8zDp9hqiSoIAXH6W16aST8gUjs8CkYWmyOdlWtFk9VosPR0PyFvjkgMXMIkdpMUmcGDEZYeRZI=&c=edi2bN_YP-ROFkA0nMcWYAFzv8vIl9pqhiCc3lBy8ue2aBJZtnS1Ig==&ch=vrZJJ45KtPdeGZm-L8FCBVotmGEwipGpcpFY-Au3c_7HWniMBhMiNw==>,
which are open to all stakeholders and can be completed on-line. The
Commission is also organizing a series of workshops in Europe, to engage
actively with all stakeholders across the board.   The transatlantic link
is a key dimension of the Digital Single Market strategy. The EU and the
U.S. are already the largest trading bloc in the world, and all across the
digital environment they have far more in common in terms of values, goals
and challenges than either of them has with the rest of the world. It is of
the utmost importance that policies impacting the digital economy, both in
the EU and the U.S., are based on a mutual dialogue to ensure
interoperability, promote business opportunities and safeguard the rights
of citizens and consumers.   For this reason the EU Delegation in
Washington, DC decided to host a public workshop to have a public debate
and gather the views of U.S. stakeholders on one key element of the DSM
strategy, which has proven to be of particular interest in the U.S.: the
consultation on "Online platforms, cloud & data, liability of
intermediaries, collaborative economy
