The EU AI Act in Context: Implementation, Interaction, and Global Developments

6 October 2026 09:00 to 16:00 | Symposium

Fourth annual symposium on regulation of AI from a European perspective

Artificial intelligence is increasingly regulated through a growing and interconnected body of law. As the EU AI Act moves from adoption to implementation, attention is shifting from the text of the regulation itself to a broader and more complex question: how does the AI Act interact with existing legal frameworks, fundamental rights protections, and emerging regulatory approaches around the world?

This symposium brings together leading scholars, policymakers, regulators, and practitioners to explore the evolving legal landscape of artificial intelligence. Particular attention will be given to the implementation of the EU AI Act, its relationship with other areas of European law, and the implications of developments in major jurisdictions such as the United States, China, and the United Kingdom.

The symposium is organised by AI Lund as part of its annual series on AI regulation and governance. The event aims to provide a forum for informed discussion on the future of AI governance in Europe and beyond, at a time when both regulatory requirements and technological developments are evolving rapidly.
