Decoding the European Data Act: exploring the impact of the Data Act on IP rights
Speakers
The European Data Act aims to drive growth in the EU's digital economy by expanding access to industrial data for businesses and consumers. It also seeks to foster competition in the cloud market by streamlining the process of switching between service providers. Additionally, the Act simplifies the transition between data processing providers while promoting fair and balanced contract terms.
The Act further clarifies how intellectual property rights (IP) intersect with data access, ensuring that IP protections do not unduly restrict the sharing and use of industrial data.
