Dear colleagues, I hope this e-mail finds you well. Please find enclosed my recently published discussion paper on data governance <https://zenodo.org/record/6457735#.YnoJeNNBwqw>, which may be of interest to you. In various projects at the Alexander von Humboldt Institute for Internet and Society and at the Einstein Center Digital Future, I have worked over the last years on a conceptual data governance framework that should facilitate the (comparative) analysis of different data governance models, individual elements or contributions with regard to their suitability for resolving conflicts of interest in data. The framework ends with a brief analysis of several draft laws from the EU Digital Services Package and explores the question of the extent to which these draft laws promote data governance structures in Europe or, if necessary, require further adaptation. Of course, I would be very glad of any kind of feedback :) Kind regards, Max von Grafenstein — Prof. Dr. Max von Grafenstein LL.M.
