About Tech Regulation LabBridging Innovation and Regulation

A global initiative bringing together leading academic institutions, policymakers, and industry experts to shape the future of technology regulation.

About Us

The Tech Regulation Lab is a global initiative supported by Ripple's UBRI and jointly established by UKCBT, Nova School of Business & Economics, and IE School of Science and Technology.

We provide a neutral space for thought leadership and actionable collaboration on digital asset regulation.

Our work spans jurisdictions, sectors, and disciplines to promote innovation-friendly regulatory frameworks that can keep pace with exponential technological change.

The Lab serves as a long-term, mission-driven consortium dedicated to shaping global regulation with integrity, insight, and impact.

Our Mission

Our mission is to foster responsible, inclusive, and innovation-aligned regulation for emerging technologies, grounded in academic rigor and institutional collaboration.

Governance

The Tech Regulation Lab is guided by a Steering Committee responsible for ensuring strategic alignment and mission fidelity across all activities.

The Committee oversees membership, evaluates contributions, and defines the Lab's strategic plan during its growth phase.

Governance at the Lab is designed to be inclusive, adaptive, and aligned with our founding values of transparency, neutrality, and global cooperation.
