Christian Odendahl, CER's chief economist, speaks to Stephanie Flanders, head of Bloomberg Economics, about Europe position in the worldwide tech race, the merits of Europen competition policy and Europe’s ability to drive up standards in the digital world. They also discuss the comments from event speakers Hal Varian, Google's Chief Economist, Monika Schnitzer, Economics Professor at LMU in Munich, Thomas Philippon, Finance Professor at NYU Stern School of Business and Merle Maigre, Senior Expert on Cyber Security at the e-Governance Academy in Estonia.
