Begoña González

As a jurist with expertise in interdisciplinary research at the crossroads of law, technology, and society, my work explores the dynamic relationship between disruptive technologies and legal frameworks. I follow a modern functional approach to the law, investigating how legal
reforms and regulation can specifically contribute to solving major challenges of humankind. I focus on the crucial role of intellectual property rights and competition law in driving innovation and on the role that market regulation plays in creating incentives toward more inclusive, ecologically sustainable, and socially responsible business models. My research aims to contribute to social impact and create a thriving, environmentally respectful future. Enhancing the well-being of humanity is my main driving force. In my work, I incorporate diverse fields such as social sciences, technology, and economics, emphasizing collaboration across various stakeholders to ensure the robustness of my outcomes. Currently, I am involved in several projects that explore the regulation of the digital economy. My main focus lies on the impacts of artificial intelligence, data interoperability, standards, and data governance in emerging economies.
