Le CDE en partenariat avec le cabinet Orrick (Paris) organise le 3 juillet une conférence portant sur
Generative AI: Competition law and eu regulatory challanges
Conférence au Cabinet Orrick - 61 rue des Belles Feuilles 76115 Paris
Inscription obligatoire RSVP
The Centre de Droit Economique (Aix-Marseille University) and Orrick are organizing a conference on the competitive and regulatory challenges in the Generative AI sector. The meteoric growth of this industry in Europe is raising both hopes and concerns for the European market. What role should regulators play in this context? The competition authorities are taking initial positions (the Autorité de la Concurrence will issue its opinion on the subject a few days before the conference), and the European Union has just adopted its AI Act. Is this regulation an opportunity for European operators in the sector?
Two dynamic roundtables, bringing together regulators (Elodie Vandenhende, Autorité de la concurrence; Brice Allibert, European Commission), academics (Stacey Dogan, Boston University; Rafael Amaro, Caen University, David Bosco, Aix-Marseille University), business representatives (Blanche Savary de Beauregard, Mistral AI,Solange, Viegas dos Reis, OVH Cloud, Matthew Garrahan, Financial Times) and Orrick lawyers (Julia Apostle, Malik Idri) will debate this topic.
