Entrepreneurs face a complex landscape of risks and regulations in technology-based industries that can significantly impact their business activities. This lecture will provide an introduction to the basic concepts of technological risk regulation, such as technological risk and safety, regulatory compliance, product standards and testing, and conformity procedures for marketing authorisation. Beyond theory, the lecture will address practical aspects of planning and managing regulatory compliance within a company.

The lecture will draw on two examples of safety regulation: pharmaceuticals and artificial intelligence systems. By examining these case studies, attendees will gain a better understanding of the technology- and sector-specific challenges and requirements. The lecture will focus on universal concepts and highlight key considerations regarding technological safety compliance in the context of international trade. A closer look at Ukrainian regulation and other selected jurisdictions will be taken during the practical session.
