EU AI Act: Addressing the New Regulatory Framework
from the Perspective of European and Japanese Businesses

ZOOM Webinar (English only)/ Free event
The EU-Japan Centre for Industrial Cooperation invites you to the webinar – EU AI Act : Addressing the New Regulatory Framework from the Perspective of European and Japanese Businesses. Please refer to the details here and join us.
As AI permeates all aspects of life and business, on 13 June 2024, the European Parliament issued the first general regulation on AI use and applications within the European market. With a risk-based approach and significant compliance duties for private and public entities (whether European or from third countries) producing, deploying, distributing or importing AI systems, this new piece of regulation appears to be the cornerstone of the European approach to AI governance. In this context, the present webinar aims to discuss the purpose of the regulation, its scope, and its most relevant obligations from a business perspective.
We will focus on bringing both Japanese and EU perspectives to the table, examining to what extent and under which conditions various entities might fall under the scope of the new rules. Additionally, we will discuss which products or services are classified as high-risk or unacceptable uses of AI under the regulation and how the associated duties may be distributed across the value chain.
The webinar is particularly dedicated to:
European and Japanese companies that integrate AI as a component of their products or services
European and Japanese companies that use AI to enhance their business functions or to interact with clients
Everyone interested in the evolution of AI Regulation
