Latest publication at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, with Joe Devanny. India’s cyber policies emerge from a domestic political context.

Behind the scene
Cyber Statecraft series

I joined the fifth edition of the Santander-CIDOB Future Leaders Forum in Barcelona, in November 2024. European digital policy: where are we and where are we going? was the title of this edition, which consisted of a speed-debating dialogue session, a dynamic and interactive format. During the event, the young participants brought their reflections, ideas and political proposals in four key areas: the regulation of emerging technologies, the European Union's technological and innovation capacities, the fight against disinformation and European digital sovereignty in a context of geopolitical competition.
