The third in our series of guest episodes features a discussion between CEO of Releaf, Tim Kirby, and Robert Jappie, Partner Fieldfisher's Regulatory Group. Tim and Robert discuss Together, they explore the disconnect between the UK's 2018 rescheduling of medical cannabis and the lack of meaningful access for patients today. Robert outlines the legal and regulatory hurdles that continue to obstruct progress, while Tim highlights the everyday impact these roadblocks have on clinics and patients. The episode also delves into the rise of self-medication and the persistent use of illicit sources. Tim and Robert examine the factors behind this trend, from affordability and education to stigma and patient trust, despite the existence of a legal framework. Finally, they unpack the complex compliance landscape for cannabis clinics in the UK. From advertising restrictions to tight prescribing protocols, the conversation reveals how clinics like Releaf build patient trust while navigating a shifting and often restrictive regulatory environment.

In dieser Folge spricht unser Host Sebastian Voigt mit Jan Wildhirth, promovierter Jurist und Geschäftsführer von Fieldfisher X, über die Frage: Wie verändert künstliche Intelligenz (KI) die Preisgestaltung in Anwaltskanzleien? Jan zeigt auf, wie KI und LegalTech die Effizienz steigern und repetitive Aufgaben automatisieren können. Er beleuchtet diese Herausforderungen und stellt drei Thesen zum Einsatz von KI vor. Ein Kernthema ist der Wechsel von traditionellen Stundenhonoraren hin zu Fixpreisen und value-based Pricing. Insbesondere die Anwendung von Dynamic Pricing und datenbasierten Preismodellen, die eine individuelle Preisgestaltung ermöglichen, wird genauestens unter die Lupe genommen. Wie geht die Branche damit um, dass die Zahl der Jura-Studierenden sinkt, während die regulatorischen Anforderungen steigen? Wie steht es in den USA um die Stundenhonorare der Anwälte und welche Unterschiede gibt es im Vergleich zu Europa? Zudem gibt Jan Einblicke in seine Vision einer Anwaltskanzlei von morgen, geprägt von technologischen Fortschritten und effizienten, skalierbaren Lösungen. Eine Folge für alle, die wissen wollen, wie der technologische Wandel das Pricing in Kanzleien neu gestaltet und welche Chancen wir alle heute schon nutzen können.

How will "the constitution of the internet" affect Ireland's tech firms? asks Sinéad Taaffe, Public & Regulatory Partner at Fieldfisher. Enter the EU's Digital Services Act (DSA) The DSA became fully applicable across the EU on 17 February 2024. One month on from the full application of the DSA, here's a refresher of who it applies to and what it means for them. The DSA seeks to make the online space safer by preventing illegal activities and protecting the fundamental rights of users through enhanced transparency and stronger accountability by intermediary service providers operating in the EU. The DSA introduces obligations, for example, relating to content moderation, online advertising, recommender systems and dark patterns. There is a key focus under the DSA on better protection for minors. In Ireland, Coimisiún na Meán (CnaM) has the role of Digital Services Coordinator (DSC) responsible for the supervision and enforcement of the DSA. The DSC can impose fines and periodic penalty payments and adopt interim measures in order to avoid the risk of serious harm. Who does the DSA apply to? The DSA applies to all providers of online intermediary services in the EU, whether or not the providers are established in the EU. Online intermediary service providers include mere conduit services, caching services and hosting services, e.g. online platforms and online search engines. The most onerous obligations are imposed on very large online providers and search engines (VLOPs and VLOSEs). With the aim of enhancing transparency, intermediary services are obliged to report regularly on content moderation they are engaged in. Hosting service providers are required to put in place mechanisms that allow for the notification of illegal content on their service. Online platforms are required to have an effective complaint-handling system in place. They must also disclose the use of algorithms to recommend content and disclose information on advertisements. Online marketplaces must comply with additional obligations, for example, and they must obtain certain information from traders to ensure traceability. As usual, great power means greater responsibility for those VLOPs and VLOSEs, the big social media and search companies, to whom the strictest obligations of the DSA apply. These online giants, who will be supervised by the European Commission, must comply with all of the obligations applied to other, smaller platforms, and are additionally responsible for implementing measures to mitigate systemic risks associated with their services and undertaking audits at their own cost. Ireland's business-friendly environment has attracted large multinationals, with the country being the European home of 13 out of 22 VLOPs and VLOSEs currently designated by the Commission and has benefited significantly from their presence. Ireland was the first member state to trigger the crisis response mechanism during the Dublin riots in November 2023 in light of concerns regarding online platforms being used to spread hatred to incite violence, and spread disinformation. This saw the European Commission contact Meta and X to remind them of their obligations under the DSA. And if providers don't comply? Non-compliance with the DSA can result in significant fines to providers. The financial penalty for intermediary service providers that infringe the DSA goes beyond even that imposed by GDPR and can be as severe as handing over 6% of worldwide turnover from the previous financial year. Where the challenges lie A key point in the scope of the legislation is that it applies to the service provided, as opposed to the business providing it. This means that an organisation providing a range of services will have to decipher which category their different services fit into. As the obligations differ based on services provided, it is essential that businesses understand where their services lie so as to avoid penalties. A long-term commitment Adherence to the DSA by...
Could the EU's new AI Act be the cornerstone of global AI regulation? That's what we're here to unpack with the expert insight of Flick Fisher, a leading privacy specialist and partner at Fieldfisher. As the digital age accelerates, the European Union is setting a precedent with the AI Act, a groundbreaking legislation designed to navigate the complex terrain of artificial intelligence. Flick and I dissect the Act's risk-based approach, dissecting the prohibited and high-risk AI systems categories, while giving a nod to the lighter touch on low-risk innovations. Our conversation delves into how this monumental regulation could shape data privacy and ethical AI practices on the world stage. Join us as we explore not only the definitions and distinctions within the AI Act but also its everyday implications for business operations, from HR decisions to the product safety landscape. With generative AI technologies like ChatGPT on the rise, understanding the nuances of this legislative framework has never been more crucial. We'll navigate the potential new compliance roles the Act may create and predict whether this regulatory move could become the global gold standard. Tune in for a comprehensive analysis that will equip COOs and business leaders with the foresight needed to thrive in an AI-governed future.(00:06) EU AI Act and Its Impact(11:50) Regulations and Definitions of AI(27:38) The Implications of the AI ActLinksEpisode link: https://www.betweentwocoos.com/the-eu-vs-ai-the-legal-opinion-with-flick-fisher-partner-at-fieldfisher/Flick's previous episode on GDPR: https://www.betweentwocoos.com/data-privacy-gdpr-flick-fisher/Flick on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/felicityfisher/Fieldfisher: https://www.fieldfisher.com/Between Two COO's: https://www.betweentwocoos.com/Michael Koenig on LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/michael-koenig514/

Many employers say they are desperate to get staff back into the office more often, but what's the best and fairest way to wean employees off remote working? As companies from tech to banking grapple with this issue, Evan Davis and guests discuss the productivity pros and cons, the impact on company culture and career progression, and the future of the office space itself. With many staff reluctant to give up the flexibility of remote working, is a hybrid model the answer to keeping them happy and how many office days each week should you go for? Plus, where do employees stand legally on return to the office requests, and what happens when workers simply refuse to comply? Evan is joined by: Kelly Beaver, CEO of Ipsos in the UK and Ireland; Stephen White, Chief Operating Officer of Santander UK; Ranjit Dhindsa, head of employment at Fieldfisher; and Nicholas Bloom, professor of economics, Stanford University.

Mark Webber is the US Managing Partner of Fieldfisher, a London-based international law firm with offices in Europe, the US, and China. An English lawyer living in the Silicon Valley, Mark oversees the firm's US operations. As a recognized leader in privacy law with extensive experience working with the world's leading technology companies, Mark is known for finding innovative solutions to complex legal challenges. At Fieldfisher, Mark has been instrumental in establishing, nurturing, and expanding the firm's presence, operations, and services in the US. In this episode… Lawyers endorse the Data Privacy Framework as a valuable tool to mitigate cybersecurity risks. However, many experts argue that protecting businesses from other privacy risks — such as those posed by AI — is not enough. The draft of the European Union AI Act has sparked debate among privacy professionals, with some advocating for a prohibition on the unrestricted use of AI technologies such as biometrics in real time. Mark Webber, a seasoned lawyer with expertise in technology and privacy, disagrees with this approach. He cautions against AI's high-risk threats to transport, infrastructure, and decision-making. To mitigate these risks, Mark suggests that companies conduct an AI impact assessment, such as the one developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology, before implementing generative AI systems. He also warns that, given the ever-evolving nature of AI, any governing policies will only be effective with proper education and training. In this episode of the She Said Privacy/He Said Security Podcast, Mark Webber, US Managing Partner at Fieldfisher, joins Jodi and Justin Daniels to discuss the US-EU Data Privacy Framework and AI. Mark explains how the framework will impact businesses, the European Union AI Act, the intersection of AI regulation with GDPR, and why organizations should consider implementing AI assessment frameworks.

In this week's Coffee Break podcast, two seasoned arbitrators, Ania Farren and Marily Paralika, chat to Tom Pearson about how the International Chamber of Commerce Court of Commercial Arbitration is empowering and strengthening Africa's arbitration landscape. The world's leading arbitral institution, the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) Court of Commercial Arbitration marks its centenary anniversary this year, with its continuing focus on promoting access to justice and providing a forum for independent and neutral dispute resolution. Since its inception in 1923, the ICC has championed the peaceful resolution of disputes as a way of supporting international trade and investment. Ania Farren and Marily Paralika from leading law firm Fieldfisher both hold impressive CVs when it comes to representing arbitral bodies and matters. In this podcast they expound on the ICC's role in advancing its fair and just arbitral proceedings globally. With 180 members from more than 100 countries, together with the ICC court Secretariat, which has six offices in different parts of the world, members ensure that the arbitration rules are properly applied through a framework that guarantees independent and neutral awards. Paralika and Farren say this is at the heart of the success of the ICC, “and probably why it is the most popular institution for big international Africa-related arbitrations”. The ICC has taken several steps to promote African arbitrators, such as the introduction of the Hold the Door Open initiative, which was launched last year to improve diversity. It is aimed at giving young African practitioners practical experience in observing arbitration hearings and engaging with counsel and arbitrators to improve their advocacy skills. In addition, the Africa Commission has been raising awareness about arbitration in Africa to build capacity in their arbitration community and to create more visibility of African arbitrators with a view to them being appointed in matters related to their jurisdictions. Paralika says this is to highlight and showcase African seats so that all the players can be more aware of appropriate arbitration candidates and seats which are ultimately dependent on the parties. However, the seats in Paris and London, the guests say, are still the preferred choices, and they explain why this is. They also provide insight on the emerging trend to have African disputes resolved in Africa.

On this week's episode, Michael's joined by Felicity “Flick” Fisher, Partner and de facto COO of the law firm, Fieldfisher. Flick breaks down all things privacy and data related, including the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation, where privacy and data laws may be headed, and the impact privacy advocates have had on the space. Now amongst the top InfoSec legal experts, Flick's journey in the space began when she moved to the Bay Area in 2015. Initially joining her firm, Osborne Clark's, Palo Alto office to focus on transactions in the tech industry, her move coincided with the emerging push for increased data privacy regulations. In January 2016, Flick moved to Fieldfisher as an Associate and the fourth employee of its newly formed Privacy, Security, and Information Group, immersing herself in all data privacy matters, with a particular interest in EU compliance as the GDPR was implemented. Since then, Flick has become a Partner, stepping into a de facto COO role, and overseeing the firm's day-to-day operations.

The use of cannabidiol, or CBD, in food and drink is booming in the UK. CBD-infused drinks, ice cream, functional snack bars - you name it - have helped the sector to astronomical growth in recent years. In 2021, the sector saw sales worth £690m. But with that growth have come some questions. In this episode of the Table Talk podcast, Stefan Gates is joined by two experts who can tackle some of the most pressing issues around CBD. Clinical lecturer, Dr Mikael Sodergren, explains how the supplement works, and addresses some of the "mystique" and "anecdotal claims" that surround it. Lawyer, Sarah Ellson, sets out the dos and don'ts when making claims about products containing CBD, and addresses the surprisingly complicated question of whether or not it's legal to produce it in the UK. Sarah also raises significant questions about whether the regulatory system is working. Dr Mikael Sodergren, Imperial College, London Mikael Sodergren MBChB, DIC, PhD, FRCS is a Senior Clinical Lecturer at Imperial College London and Consultant Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Surgeon at Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust. He leads the Medical Cannabis Research Group - a research programme which evaluates and develops novel therapies targeting the endocannabinoid system through a framework of in vitro, in vivo and clinical translational activities. Sarah Ellson, Partner, Field Fisher Sarah is a partner at law firm Fieldfisher where she co-leads the firm's regulatory group and specialises in healthcare and life sciences regulation.

Phil Lee is an EU data privacy legend (in real life and in our minds too). Highly technical and practical, Phil is often the ideal outside counsel partner for a tech focused in-house legal team. He navigates an ever-changing field of laws and regulations - like a game of Tetris. He helps his clients twist, flip and shape their “pieces” to fit into a complex scheme. And he does it with calm and confidence, almost like there is the Tetris Tchaikovsky Nutcracker music playing the background of his conversations. And Phil is a deep thinker on privacy. So much so that he often walks along the Thames river, gazing out, dreamily envisioning all the ways in which a company can utilize “legitimate interests” as a basis for processing Personal Data….

There are so many privacy headlines in the U.S. right now that it almost seems to overshadow developments in the EU. While the privacy profession was, for years, seemingly laser-focused on the General Data Protection Regulation -- deservedly -- the California Consumer Protection Act set a firestorm in 2017 and then later in 2018 when it was passed. But that doesn't mean things are quiet in the EU. In this episode of The Privacy Advisor Podcast, host Angelique Carson chats with FieldFisher's Phil Lee, CIPP/E, about everything from the future of cross-border data transfers to that yet-to-be-passed ePrivacy Regulation.

Since the 24 June 2016, the politics of Brexit – in both the UK and the EU – has driven the negotiations and discussion surrounding the UK's departure from the EU. It is the international legal framework, however, that has framed those negotiations and will shape the UK's future trading relationship with the EU and the rest of the world after March 2019, in whatever form Brexit takes. Andrew Hood will examine some of the structural and practical realities of public international law that have governed – and will continue to govern – the future of the UK and the EU in a post-Brexit world. About the speaker: Andrew has almost 20 years of experience as an EU, trade, regulatory and public international lawyer working in both the public and private sectors. He is currently a partner at the law firm Fieldfisher and has previously spent over 13 years as a lawyer and negotiator for the UK Government, including as a lawyer at the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, a UK negotiator in Brussels, Head of International and EU Law at the Attorney General’s Office and the General Counsel in 10 Downing Street for Prime Minister David Cameron.
