The DET Research Institute – Law, Economics and Technology – renews and promotes the experience acquired by the DET Research Unit, which was founded in 2001 to carry out studies and research, and to provide services related to the development of law and EU policy and, more generally, on the impact of regulations on business and society.
Special attention is paid to the interaction between technological innovation, regulation and globalisation. Sectors with a high level of innovation, on the one hand, witness the progress caused by technological innovation result in high technical standards and, on the other, the efforts made by national and international authorities which aim to regulate the different markets in order to preserve competition and protect consumers/users. The decision-making processes are extremely complex in view of the necessary trade-off between freedom of economic initiative and regulation. DET aims to act as a point of reference that can promote research activities while also providing support when studying these issues.
Backed by years’ experience in this sector, the increasing links between issues in different fields has prompted DET to prefer an interdisciplinary approach. DET is made up of a selected team of internationally well-known jurists and economists who lead the Institute’s research activities with a multi-disciplinary approach that successfully combines research activities with assessment and consultancy.
Based on experience and know-how accumulated over the past years, the research institute applies topical methodologies and contents that refer to European and Italian law, providing support for the decision-making process in companies, public institutions and governmental bodies in order to implement specific operational strategies. Special attention is paid to the study of current transformations in governmental functions, as well as market regulations, also in view of the influence of EU law on Italian law.
Moreover, regulatory innovation compels public institutions to adapt in view of the influence of supranational law over both legislative activity and administrative organisation. Through its benchmarking and comparative studies, the Institute also analyses the solutions used by different national legal systems, weighing up the possibility of transplanting models to solve Italy’s current problems.
Moreover, the Institute supports the implementation of the decision-making process by introducing specific operational strategies and studying the economic and technological impact of international and national legislation on the system in which the companies operate.
Backed up by its experience of project management, DET also supports public bodies during the process of drawing up and subsequently managing projects, in response to European, national and regional competitions and for access to sources of funding. DET also carries out projects on international co-operation related to technical and legal issues.
