Cloud infrastructures offer enormous opportunities, but they also raise new questions: How is sovereignty affected if data is processed across borders? What role do geopolitical developments, such as those in the USA or China, play for Swiss companies? And how much “Swissness” does a trustworthy cloud really need?
In this interactive panel discussion with Christian Laux (Laux Lawyers AG) and Paula Zimmermann (Laux Lawyers AG), we will take a critical look at cloud setups and strategical considerations. Together with the audience, we will discuss how legal risks can be managed without sacrificing technological innovation.
Your questions are highly encouraged – the discussion thrives on dialogue!
