About the Webinar

If it feels like AI is everywhere, that’s because it is. 88% of businesses have reported using it, and legal-specific adoption in at least some capacity is up to 96%.

The EU has rolled out a prescriptive, enforcement-backed regime through the AI Act, with its biggest compliance deadline hitting this August. Meanwhile, the UK has no binding AI legislation (and won't until late 2026 at the earliest), leaving businesses with European exposure straddling two very different regulatory regimes.

For in-house legal teams, the challenge is scaling AI adoption today while building governance that lasts through tomorrow. This webinar brings together UK and international legal leaders who are living this challenge. We’ll discuss where the regulatory friction shows up first, which common blind spots create real exposure, and what “good enough” looks like when benchmarks are fuzzy. We’ll also share concrete action items so you can leave with something you can act on immediately.

Register today to hear how legal leaders are operationalizing AI compliance across the UK and EU without turning legal into a bottleneck.

Agenda Items Include:

  • The EU AI Act and UK regulatory frameworks today
  • Where the two regimes create the most friction for in-house teams
  • Common compliance blind spots: shadow AI, vendor contracts, and governance gaps
  • Lessons from GDPR that apply to AI Act readiness
  • AI risk classification in practice
  • Building governance that satisfies both regimes without over-engineering
  • 90-day action plan
