Technology and politics in focus at annual workshop
A new age of technology and geopolitics was in focus at the second annual workshop of the Jean Monnet Centre for Next Generation EU-UK Relations.

The workshop took place on 15 May and brought together scholars from across the UK and Europe to discuss emerging areas of research on one of the central issues facing the continent.
The workshop, organised by Dr Scott James (King’s College London) featured three panels, which focussed on areas as broad as digital trade and cryptocurrency, AI and regulation, and technology and geopolitics.
The workshop took place under the umbrella of the Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence on Next Generation EU-UK Relations. The centre, launched at King’s in 2025 and funded by the European Union, aims to explore the different dimensions of the relationship between the EU and the UK. These range from diplomatic relations, to commercial, financial, defence and migration issues.
