PPMI, together with TNO, is leading a transformative project for DG CNECT, exploring the future governance of Web 4.0 and virtual worlds. The project aims to assess the main developments in internet technologies that are relevant for Web 4.0 and virtual worlds. Furthermore, it will set the ground for a global debate on the different aspects of the global governance of Web 4.0 and virtual worlds.
As part of this initiative, stakeholders are invited to participate in shaping the foundational principles for virtual worlds and Web 4.0. Your contributions will feed into discussions at the High-Level Conference on Governance for Web 4.0 and Virtual Worlds, co-organised by the European Commission and the 2025 Polish Presidency of the Council of the EU.
How can you contribute?
