These Lunch&Learn meetings are online knowledge sessions about the impact of new EU data regulations on a specific sector. Anyone can join online. Registering for meetings is easy; simply use the registration form below.

Annual agenda

2026

September 7 - Lunch & Learn for M&A: Energy transition

The energy transition revolves around data: smart meters, charging stations, flexibility services, and energy platforms. We demonstrate how NIS2 classifies energy companies and energy data platforms as essential/important entities, when the Data Act mandates access to and sharing of data from IoT and industrial systems, and what role AI Act regulations play in AI-driven grid optimization and forecasting. This provides a clear picture of which EU regulations apply and the associated risks and opportunities for each type of player (grid operator, supplier, EMS provider, platform).

December 7 - Lunch & Learn for M&A: B2C sector

This Lunch & Learn focuses on B2C companies such as e-commerce platforms and apps that work directly with consumers. We'll discuss when online platforms or marketplaces fall under the DSA, how the AI ​​Act impacts personalized recommendations and profiling, and in which cases the Data Act grants consumers new rights to data from connected products and services. We'll also briefly explore situations in which the DMA can play a role with major gatekeepers. The goal: to clarify which EU data legislation applies to each B2C model and what that means for product design, contracts, and M&A processes.
