On 6 November 2025, the virtual DigiMeet 2025 took place, organized by bidt, CAIS, Hans-Bredow-Institut, and Weizenbaum-Institut. More than 60 international PhD students and postdoctoral researchers participated to discuss the topic “Platform Governance & Power: Between control, ethics and societal dynamics.”
The aim of DigiMeet 2025 was to explore the latest developments in global platform governance – particularly power relations, societal effects, and technological innovations. Across four sessions, researchers presented a total of 16 talks on issues related to regulation, artificial intelligence, networks, and platform mechanisms.
