SUMMARY:Session three: Access terms and interoperability in digital platf
 orms
DESCRIPTION:As digital platforms increasingly function as essential gatew
 ays to online markets and consumers\, ensuring fair access and effective
  interoperability has become a central concern for competition enforceme
 nt and regulation. This panel will explore the evolving legal and econom
 ic dimensions of access terms – —particularly how dominant platforms set
  conditions for business users\, third-party developers\, and competitor
 s. Key topics include the tension between privacy and data portability\,
  self-preferencing and discriminatory access\, the role of application p
 rogramming interfaces (APIs) and technical standards in enabling (or imp
 eding) interoperability\, and how the Digital Markets Act (DMA) reshapes
  obligations for gatekeepers in this context. With recent enforcement ac
 tions and legislative developments across the EU and globally\, the disc
 ussion will assess how regulators and courts are balancing innovation in
 centives with the need to prevent digital foreclosure and preserve open 
 digital ecosystems.\n
