this continuing legal education webinar, scheduled for september 29th, 2025, 1:00 pm to 2:30 pm et, will review the legal landscape governing artificial intelligence in the U.S., the EU and other jurisdictions and its implications for U.S.-based companies. panelists will explain how laws outside the U.S. can apply to U.S. organizations and offer practical guidance on establishing policies and procedures to ensure compliance across multiple regulatory frameworks. the session is positioned as a practical roadmap for compliance rather than a legislative primer.
the webinar materials and description highlight recent and active regulatory developments. the eu ai act went into effect in august 2024 and establishes a comprehensive, risk-based framework that applies to developers, exporters, importers, deployers and distributors. in the U.S., a range of state laws have been proposed and enacted over the past year, and the current administration announced a new U.S. Artificial Intelligence Action Plan in july 2025; the plan is not binding but recommends actions for federal agencies and is accompanied by three executive orders aligned with the plan. the u.k. reintroduced its artificial intelligence bill in march 2025 and has pursued a pro-innovation, sector-specific approach described in its artificial intelligence opportunities action plan from january 2025.
the program also notes regulatory activity beyond the U.S., EU and u.k. china has been active in regulating artificial intelligence, including generative AI, and brazil’s proposed regulation has been approved by the senate and awaits the house of representatives. the webinar outline lists five modules: eu ai act, u.k. regulation, U.S. laws and the new action plan, other countries (brazil, chile, argentina, uruguay) and establishing compliance policies and procedures. attendees can expect concrete steps for assessing cross-border applicability, preparing for eu compliance under the ai act and instituting internal controls to manage regulatory risk.
