Future Mobility Meets Data Monetization

Future Mobility Meets Data Monetization

Data is the new currency driving economic benefit for the mobility sector. Though at a fundamental level data monetization means selling rights in data to a third party, it can do much more in enabling the creation of new services and revenue streams. In striving to grow market share, working with outside partners and competitors (e.g. via data pooling or licensing agreements) can expose a company to antitrust and merger control risks. Also, the decision to grant or refuse data access has to balance the rules of tightening antitrust regimes and data privacy and cybersecurity concerns. Globally, antitrust and regulatory regimes on data in the mobility sector are developing, but still inconsistently. This webcast featuring Nicolas Kredel (Dusseldorf), Jan Kresken (Dusseldorf), Teisha Johnson (Washington, DC) and Laura Liu (Baker McKenzie FenXun, Beijing) provides legal guidance from North America, China and Europe on how companies can mitigate antitrust risks when developing a profitable new data monetization strategy.

Future Mobility meets Hydrogen

With global acknowledgement of the spiraling negative impact of carbon emissions on the planet, many countries are swiftly launching efficient, low-cost hydrogen-based solutions for the future mobility industry and have agreed to accelerate zero-emission vehicles at the recent COP26 conference. The goal is to have climate-friendly techniques on road vehicles, synthetic fuels and, for the aviation and maritime sectors, developing a hydrogen transport and distribution infrastructure, as well as expanding the network of hydrogen refueling stations.

In this instalment of our Future Mobility meets…series, Nicolas Kredel (Dusseldorf), Claire Dietz-Polte (Berlin), James O'Brien (Chicago) and Danielle Valois (Partner at Trench Rossi Watanabe) discussed the new and shifting polices and strategies in the hydrogen sector for future mobility players who must also be mindful of potential pitfalls.

Future Mobility meets eVTOLs

Hailed as the solution to alleviate some of the challenges of on-the-ground transportation (infrastructure constraints, congestion and the like), eVTOLs - or electric vertical take-off and landing aircrafts - represent the next technological evolution in the sector of on-demand shared transportation through services like air taxis.

With giant technological leaps being made in the sector and expected growth in the future, it makes sense for companies to ensure they are equipped with all the knowledge they need to navigate the legal and regulatory framework underpinning advanced air mobility and eVTOL operations. Our experts Nicolas Kredel (Dusseldorf), Adam Aft (Chicago) and Jennifer Trock (Washington, DC) take you on an exciting journey of discovery on the future of air transport.

Future Mobility meets Connected Cars

The third installment of our Future Mobility meets…series takes you on the road along with consumers who are now opting for clean, efficient and performing connected vehicles. At the core of future mobility developments, the connected car is without doubt one of the most exciting areas of innovation for the automotive industry. But of course, with innovation comes a combination of new legal requirements as OEMs need legal teams equipped with trend foresight and the tools to seamlessly implement niche legal processes across a combination of industries, spanning manufacturing to telecommunications. In this session, Nicolas Kredel (Dusseldorf), Siranya Rhuvattana (Bangkok), Andrea Mezzetti (Rome) and Lothar Determann (Palo Alto) explore the opportunities and legal considerations that can help companies lead the mobility market into a fully connected and automated future.

Future Mobility meets Smart Cities

In this second instalment, we take you around the world of Smart Cities and the exciting developments happening right now to ensure technology is put at the service of the urban citizen's well-being. Nicolas Kredel, Andrew MacKenzie, Yaeko Hodaka and Raffaele Giarda explore the commercial and legal aspects of a not-so-futuristic topic.
