Navi­ga­ting the EU AI Act across the Sup­p­ly Chain

Digi­tal Pro­ducts for the EU Mar­ket – Navi­ga­ting the EU AI Act across the Sup­p­ly Chain

In coope­ra­ti­on with the German-Israeli Cham­ber of Indus­try and Com­mer­ce (AHK Isra­el), we are plea­sed to invi­te you to the third web­i­nar in our series “Digi­tal Pro­ducts for the EU Mar­ket – Regu­la­to­ry Land­scape for Soft­ware, AI and Cyber­se­cu­ri­ty”. This ses­si­on will pro­vi­de a prac­ti­cal over­view of the regu­la­to­ry requi­re­ments for pla­cing digi­tal pro­ducts and ser­vices on the Euro­pean mar­ket – with a spe­cial focus on the regu­la­ti­on of Arti­fi­ci­al Intel­li­gence (AI).

The incre­asing inte­gra­ti­on of arti­fi­ci­al intel­li­gence (AI) into digi­tal pro­ducts and ser­vices, as well as into glo­bal pro­duc­tion and dis­tri­bu­ti­on pro­ces­ses, is res­ha­ping not only tech­no­lo­gi­cal inno­va­ti­on, but also the regu­la­to­ry land­scape. In respon­se to the gro­wing use of AI, the Euro­pean legis­la­tor has adopted the first Euro­pean regu­la­to­ry frame­work for AI, the EU AI Act. The EU AI Act is a land­mark step in regu­la­ting the deve­lo­p­ment, deploy­ment and use of AI in the Euro­pean Union.

The new regu­la­ti­on estab­lishes har­mo­ni­zed rules for the safe and trans­pa­rent use of AI sys­tems in the EU mar­ket. Using a risk-based approach, the EU AI Act sets dif­fe­rent requi­re­ments for dif­fe­rent types of AI sys­tems. The new obli­ga­ti­ons app­ly not only to AI pro­vi­ders and pro­duct manu­fac­tu­r­ers, but also to deploy­ers, importers and dis­tri­bu­tors. The sup­p­ly chain is also in the spotlight.

For Israe­li com­pa­nies inte­res­ted in offe­ring their ser­vices and/or pro­ducts in the Euro­pean mar­ket, it is essen­ti­al to under­stand the new EU regu­la­to­ry frame­work. Whe­ther you are an AI pro­vi­der, an importer of digi­tal com­pon­ents or a sup­pli­er, under­stan­ding the EU AI Act is essen­ti­al to ensu­re com­pli­ance and busi­ness continuity.

Our pre­sen­ta­ti­on will pro­vi­de you with a com­pre­hen­si­ve over­view of the EU AI Act, the new com­pli­ance requi­re­ments and best prac­ti­ces for prac­ti­cal imple­men­ta­ti­on. We look for­ward to your par­ti­ci­pa­ti­on and an inter­na­tio­nal exchange.
