Machines and goods come more and more with sensors that constantly communicate and optimize their processes. In the reshaping of industries through technology, Covington advises clients in all legal (e.g., regulatory and privacy), and policy aspects in relation to smart industries. Among other things, we counsel companies on building a nationwide IoT network, establishing a communications platform for financial transactions, on the integrity and security of AI algorithms and services, data transfers, and on the incorporation of blockchain services.
Farming 4.0 is already more than just a buzzword; for many farmers, it is practically part of their everyday life. The latest disruptions promise enormous potential in resource efficiency and yield increase. Covington counsels clients on all legal aspects of the development of intelligent agricultural machinery and process technologies, the use of new cultivation systems or separators in agricultural operations, and the transmission of farm equipment data to web-based cloud solutions.
Digital technology is driving a revolution in healthcare. Covington advises clients, including pharmaceutical, medical device, and biotech companies as well as other health service providers on all legal aspects (e.g., regulatory, privacy and cybersecurity aspects) in relation to wearable devices, m-health, health IT, telemedicine, and personalized medicine to help them develop and launch digital health solutions.
Connected homes and workplaces have huge potential to revolutionize the way we live and work. Covington counsels clients on the evolving regulatory frameworks that govern technology connecting home and workplaces. Among other things, we advise our clients on privacy issues raised by the collection of voice and other data, competition concerns related to big data, data transfers, “connected building-as-a-service” agreements, and regulatory investigations and enforcement actions.
Driven by the increasing connectivity of vehicles (e.g., autonomous cars and trains) and transportation systems (e.g., intelligent transportation systems in the aviation and maritime sector), intelligent transportation systems are indispensable and make mobility more efficient, safer and more comfortable. Covington’s multi-disciplinary team of lawyers supports clients in all legal aspects in relation to such intelligent transportation systems, e.g., in relation to technology, intellectual property (including the use and exploitation of data), privacy and cybersecurity, product liability, and insurance.
