Hi,

She’s been called “the world’s most famous (or infamous) regulator” and “Silicon Valley’s tormenter-in-chief” and has been depicted as a medieval warrior queen. President Trump calls her the European Union’s “tax lady.”

Margrethe Vestager is taking on tech monopolies, one multibillion-dollar fine at a time.

As the US spins its wheels on regulation, the formidable Danish politician has fined Big Tech to the tune of billions for tax avoidance, anti-competitive behavior, and more.

And now, in addition to serving an unprecedented second term as the European commissioner for competition, she has a new role to contend with: overseeing the EU’s digital policy.

We’ll ask her about her approach to regulating the tech sector and encouraging competition, her vision for Europe in the digital age, and which anti-competitive practices she thinks pose the greatest threat to innovation and consumer rights.

You can join us May 26-28 for that talk and many more at Code’s new location: The Beverly Hilton and Waldorf Astoria in Beverly Hills, California.
