Dr Ole Schröder is investigating how legal uncertainty surrounding the processing of personal data hinders innovation and complicates the development of data-driven business models and AI applications in Europe.
Data is a vital foundation for knowledge, innovation and economic prosperity. In his contribution to the Table.Briefings CEO Round Table 2025, Dr Ole Schröder examines the tension between the use of data and the protection of personal rights and privacy.
He highlights how vague legal concepts, protracted proceedings and significant liability risks can lead to legal uncertainty for businesses, thereby hindering data-driven services and AI applications. Dr Ole Schröder therefore advocates clearer legal guidelines, consistent use of the GDPR’s exemption clauses and greater self-regulation.
