Keeping up with developments in digital technology is essential for an organisation or business to stay relevant. However, a key challenge is the rapidly expanding breadth and depth of regulation and legislation applicable to the use of digital technology. As organisations embrace digital transformation, they may be exposed to unfamiliar regulatory environments.
Practical Law has published a sectors note explaining the concept of digital transformation. The note identifies the principal legal and regulatory issues associated with different aspects of digital transformation in the UK. Among others, the note considers the laws and regulations affecting cloud computing, the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, distributed ledger technology and new supply models.
