Daniel is an NGI Influencer, Co-Founder of Tauri and CEO of CrabNebula, and an NGI Sargasso supportive partner
“Is the European regulatory landscape in software protecting the most vulnerable?” This question was the starting point of an inspirational talk by Daniel Thompson-Yvetot, NGI Influencer, Co-Founder of Tauri and CEO of CrabNebula, an NGI Sargasso supportive partner contributing to the NGI Sargasso mission of building a more human-centric Internet.
When speaking about vulnerability, Daniel referred to the human, the person and our rights, understanding that “GDPR protects humans, not companies.”
On the 22nd of May 2024, he offered the NGI Sargasso innovators from the Open Call 1 and Open Call 2 an inspirational talk as part of their 9-month OnCampus program activities to discuss about software in the European regulatory landscape.
CrabNebula’s CEO put the focus of his talk in explaining in detail the Digital Markets Act (DMA), the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), the Product Liability Directive (PLD), the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA), the Digital Services Act (DSA), and the AI Act (AIA), remarking that acts in which citizens can contribute can become laws to enter force.
His presentation ended up in a live discussion with our innovators about the several acts he introduced.
