Artificial Intelligence systems have rapidly transitioned from emerging technologies to integral tools in corporate decision-making, product development, and risk management across various sectors. As AI’s footprint expands, navigating the regulatory landscape, particularly under the European Union’s AI Act, has become paramount for businesses operating within the EU. The AI Act introduces a comprehensive legal framework aimed at addressing ethical concerns, safeguarding fundamental rights, and providing clear governance for AI deployment. For corporate counsel, understanding the implications of this pioneering regulation is essential not only for compliance but also for leveraging strategic opportunities in a legally robust manner.

This webinar provides a contextual overview of AI systems under the evolving regulatory lens of the EU AI Act. Designed specifically for European corporate lawyers, it highlights key considerations, practical implications, and emerging questions stemming from the implementation of this landmark legislation. By situating AI within a clear legal and operational context, participants will gain foundational insights to better guide their organisations through the complexities and opportunities presented by Europe’s ambitious approach to AI governance.

Questions can be submitted in advance to ensure that the relevant specialists are available to cover the areas which are of most interest. These sessions are relevant and applicable to attendees from all jurisdictions and sectors given the broad scope of the AI legislation coming into force.
