European cloud trends: Law reforms on cloud data protection is vital for the European Commission

Law reforms on cloud data protection is vital for the European Commission (EC). The role of EC and EU has a compromise to perform legal priorities in cyberspace and develop markets

Breaking down barriers is the dilemma for investors, companies, EU member states and lawmakers to guarantee an atmosphere of legitimacy on new European cloud trends. The role of EC and EU has a compromise to perform legal priorities in cyberspace and develop digital markets.

Thus, new benefits and opportunities for entrepreneurship and technology investments can be possible in the EU with a digital single market. Nonetheless, legal barriers must be flexible across the Union, to get a consensus on legal priorities, in order to build a “free flow of data” across European borders.

Events on Cloud Computing, such as the Datacloud Europe Event celebrated in Monaco in June 3th, expressed a new opportunity for the EU to create new jobs in the EURO zone and enhancing GDP factors in economic growth.
