Dear Colleagues,

I am pleased to invite you to an open online workshop, "International Law of Critical Internet Infrastructure: A Comparative Analysis of Europe and China," to be held on December 13, 2024 from 09:00 AM - 11:00 AM UTC.

This event, co-hosted by Lodz Cyber Hub at the University of Lodz Law School, an ICANN EURALO ALS, and the United Nations University – Comparative Regional Integration Studies (UNU-CRIS), brings together distinguished speakers from Europe and China to discuss the governance of Critical Internet Infrastructure (CII). Topics will include:

• The growing significance of China's role in providing satellite connectivity to underserved regions.
• Policies facilitating these developments.
• Europe’s evolving legal frameworks for CII on land, under the sea, and in outer space.

To register, send a blank email with "CII" in the subject line to LCH@wpia.uni.lodz.pl by December 11, 2024.

I hope to see you there for this timely and relevant discussion.
