July 2026 Webinar: Regulation - all about data

Just as managing and profiting from data is a key topic for players across the automotive industry, so it is too for regulators, with ever-growing sets of rules around customer data, business data, and vehicle data … all now being further transformed by the dimension of AI.

This webinar looked at a number of other recent legal developments at both European and national levels that relate to the management of data and online channels.  Some of them directly involve the automotive sector, and all of them give valuable lessons around how the competition principles of the MVBER and its parent the VBER translate into enforcement practice, alongside other emerging areas of regulation around data.

 We covered issues including how a brand can steer what their franchised retailers do online, how regulators are growing increasingly concerned at the risks of collusion when a number of players all use the same data analytics platforms, and at the latest EU guidelines around 'high risk' uses of AI tools.
