Why study the Master's Degree in Digital Law
Today's society is immersed in a digital revolution full of constant technological innovations that are creating new trends and transforming the way we see the world, the way we are in it and the way we relate to it. The way in which we live together, relate to each other and consume is conditioned by the appearance of new tools and platforms. All of this has transformed companies' business models and many start-ups are bursting onto the scene, basing their competitive advantage on the latest technological advances.
These advances and changes have, in turn, led to the appearance of new problems such as the falsification of bank websites, mergers and acquisitions with technological assets, card cloning, identity theft on social networks, the right to be forgotten and to rectification, and digital identity, among others.
We find ourselves, therefore, in a scenario full of opportunities and challenges that will require lawyers capable of adapting to a world in constant change and who can provide legal answers to the multitude of legal questions that arise from the digital irruption in the activity staff and business.
