SUMMARY:WEBINAR – The EU’s New Tech Rules and their Impact on Transatlantic Business: what do you need to know and how should you prepare?
DESCRIPTION:Do you remember the EU’s GDPR and its extra-territorial impact on companies based outside of Europe? \n  \nThe EU’s Digital Services Act (DSA) and Digital Markets Act (DMA)\, together\, will form a single set of new rules that will be applicable to online intermediaries and digital platforms in the EU.

Are you considering expanding your online business to Europe? Are you a start-up or scale-up still developing your business model with an eye on Europe? \n  \nDon’t be caught unprepared! \n  \nJoin us to find out what type of businesses/services/products will be covered by the DSA-DMA Package\, what you need to know to anticipate on these new rules and how to build them into your business model. \n\n\n\n\n\nTopics to be addressed \n\nWhat are the DMA and DSA?\nWhich online services will be impacted and what type of companies should be concerned?\nHow will the DSM and DMA fit into the EU’s array of tech legislation alongside the 2016 General Data Protection Regulation?\nWhat role will the EU/US Trade & Technology Council have with regard to the implementation of these rules and their impact on US companies?\nWhat routes might the U.S. take as it considers similar regulations on tech companies?\nWhat concretely can you do to prepare and what is the timeline?\n\n\n\n\nSPEAKERS \n\nLucinda Creighton\, CEO of Vulcan Consulting Ltd\nPeter Fatelnig\, Minister-Cousellor for Digital Economy Policy – EU Delegation in Washington DC\nFrancesco Liberatore\, Partner – Squire Patton Boggs\nAlan Sutin\, Chair of the Technology\, Media & Telecommunications Practice and Senior Chair of the Global Intellectual Property & Technology Practice – Greenberg Traurig [Moderator]\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSPEAKER BIOS \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLucinda Creighton \nLucinda Creighton CEO of Vulcan Consulting Ltd\, is a barrister\, qualified New York attorney\, former Irish Minister for European Affairs and Member of the Irish Parliament.
