Prashant Ramdas said, "The world is more digital today than it has ever been and is staged to take over all traditional media of communication. For India to stay competitive in this age and aspire to be a leader which it is poised for due to the vast talent pool available, it needs to focus on striking the right balance between regulation of the digital sector and ease of doing business. Understanding the unique challenges of each medium and addressing them through necessary policies and legal framework is the key I believe. I congratulate Legal Era for having taken up this topic for discussion at this opportune time when the pandemic has literally forced all to bring in digital into our lives like never before!"
