Virtual
In collaboration with the IBJ
In this webinar, we will start with a general overview of the AI Act, the first horizontal legislation worldwide to regulate the safety of AI-systems, before moving to a few focal points.
We will briefly discuss:
- the scope of application of this new regulation, in particular the extra-territorial effect,
- the key roles in the AI Act
- the classification of the AI systems and the notion of general purpose AI models
- the requirements for a safe AI system and the obligations for providers of such systems
- enforcement, remedies and penalties at EU and national levels
We will then focus on the concrete obligations the AI Act entails for companies intending to use high risk or other AI systems in their organization or in relation to the public and the attention points for their contractual practice.
Finally, we will explore the interaction between the AI Act and the GDPR.

Rethinking "the Administrative State" - Takeaways From the Supreme Court's 2025–26 Term
The Supreme Court's 2025–26 term took up several momentous cases that will influence and, in key respects, reorient constitutional separation-of-powers principles moving forward. Join the D.C. Bar Administrative Law and Agency Practice Community for a discussion of the key takeaways from the Supreme Court's 2025-26 term. This panel will examine decisions addressing the scope of executive branch authority, including cases involving tariffs issued under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act and the removal of leaders of so-called independent agencies. The discussion will also address significant orders issued on the Court's emergency docket and what these decisions and orders signal about the distinct roles the three branches of federal government play in shaping the administrative state.
