IP, ICT, and Data Insights Newsletter: September 2025
Andersen’s IP, ICT, and Data Service Line has released the 2nd Edition of its IP, ICT, and Data Insights Newsletter – September 2025!
This edition brings together significant European legal and regulatory developments in Intellectual Property, Information and Communication Technology, and Data Protection. Highlights include Bosnia and Herzegovina joining the European Patent Organization, the EU Cyber Resilience Act, national measures transposing the NIS2 Directive, and pioneering AI regulations in Austria and Poland.
Key case law addresses data protection infringements by energy providers, municipalities, and clubs processing biometric data, procedural rulings in trademark disputes, and landmark enforcement actions in social media privacy.
Key insights from Poland’s perspective
- Poland is strengthening its position as a growing player in the CEE tech and data market.
- New EU regulations on data processing, copyright, technology transfers, and IP protection are raising the bar for compliance.
- In the ICT sector, businesses face increasing challenges around cybersecurity, interoperability, and standardization.
- Data-driven companies — SaaS, IoT, big data — need to stay alert to obligations around privacy, data governance, and cross-border data access.
Practical implications for businesses in Poland
- Conduct a data and process audit – map where your data is stored, how it’s used, and who has access.
- Secure licensing, IP rights, and know-how in contracts with local and international partners.
- Closely monitor EU and national regulations in ICT and data – updates may require internal policy changes.
- Stay agile: prepare your business model and technology stack for regulatory and market shifts.
