EU digital regulation in practice: challenges for Swiss companies

The new EU digital laws, such as the EU Data Act, the EU Cyber Resilience Act, the GDPR and the planned Digital Omnibus Regulation, affect not only companies within the EU, but also manufacturers and providers in Switzerland. Simply operating in the EU market entails numerous obligations.

Typical challenges:

• EU Data Act: Adapting contracts, technical implementation of data access rights, safeguarding existing business models.
• Cyber Resilience Act: Product safety throughout the entire lifecycle, clear responsibilities, integration into development processes.
• GDPR: Aligning data protection obligations with new requirements regarding data access and product safety.
• Digital Omnibus Regulation: Potential simplification of EU digital rules, implications for existing compliance structures.

Practical support:

We advise companies on implementing these requirements, highlight typical pitfalls and develop pragmatic solutions for product design, IT processes and contract drafting.
