APAC Spotlight is a podcast from the Hogan Lovells Cadwalader APAC Data, Privacy and Cybersecurity team, led by Charmian Aw, exploring the key developments shaping the region's fast-evolving digital regulatory landscape.
In this second episode of the series, Charmian Aw speaks to Hogan Lovells Cadwalader associate Ciara O’Leary – to tackle one of the biggest issues facing businesses today: AI regulation across APAC. While the EU AI Act has dominated headlines, jurisdictions across Asia-Pacific are taking very different approaches, ranging from China's extensive AI rules and South Korea's AI Basic Act to Singapore's voluntary governance frameworks and emerging laws in Vietnam and Thailand.
Charmian and Ciara bust common myths about AI regulation, explore the growing role of national security, data protection, and sector-specific rules, and discuss why EU AI Act compliance alone may not be enough for organizations operating across the region. They also share practical perspectives on navigating APAC's fragmented regulatory landscape as AI regulation continues to accelerate.
The key takeaway? There is no one-size-fits-all approach to AI compliance in APAC. Organizations should build a strong governance foundation but be ready to adapt to local requirements as the regulatory landscape evolves.
Tune in to hear what businesses, legal teams and technology professionals need to know about the future of AI regulation in Asia-Pacific.
