In the past couple of years, the European Union has implemented a multitude of regulations impacting tech companies. These mandates, although complex, extend from the DMA, DSA, and DGA introduced in 2022, to the DA and NIS2 last year. Additional legislation, such as the AI Act and eIDAS, are set for potential implementation later this year if everything proceeds as planned.
Both the mandates introduced and those on the horizon are compelled by visions of exerting stricter control over tech behemoths, enforcing a higher bar of cybersecurity requirements, fostering increased sharing of industrial data, and solidifying regulation over the use of artificial intelligence.
Brussels-based experts, including competition, trade, privacy, and ESG lawyers, have been mapping the regulatory risks that these measures represent for tech companies.
