Bär & Karrer, Hogan Lovells, DORDA, A bird's eye on product liability in Europe, Zoom Webinar

On 20 May 2025, we held a webinar examining the evolving landscape of product liability across Europe.

Our discussion focused on the new EU Product Liability Directive, highlighting its anticipated impact on businesses in Switzerland, Germany, Austria, France, Italy, and the UK. We also addressed evolving litigation trends and the role of class actions, as well as the complex liability questions arising from emerging technologies and artificial intelligence.

The discussion offered practical insights for businesses navigating these changes, particularly in highly regulated sectors.
