Generative AI: A global guide to key IP considerations
Artificial intelligence (AI) raises many intellectual property (IP) issues.
Global | Publication | December 2017
A “game-changing” new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) comes into force across the EU, including the UK, in May 2018 - less than six months away.
The GDPR will govern the use of personal data - any information that relates to or could identify an individual - by all companies operating in the European Economic Area (EEA), as well as non-EEA based companies that provide services to EU citizens.
The GDPR introduces a number of new concepts and obligations including:
Failure to comply could lead to a maximum fine of 4 per cent of global turnover or €20 million, whichever is higher.
The impact on businesses that collect, use or otherwise process personal data will be considerable and significant, not least in a real estate context where such data is used for property and portfolio management purposes as well as marketing.
Bear in mind too that GDPR will extend to data held in relation to an organisation’s own workforce, including contractors.

On 21 May 2024, the European Council (or Council) adopted the so-called ‘Hydrogen and decarbonised gas market package’ (the Gas Package). The package contains a recast of the 715/2009 gas regulation (Gas Regulation) and a recast of the 2009/73 gas directive (Gas Directive) aimed at reforming the existing EU regulatory framework to support the deployment of renewable and low-carbon gases, in particular hydrogen. As such, it represents a major development in the EU gas market.
