Artificial Intelligence & Technology

Our firm advises corporations, technology-driven businesses, and international investors on the legal and regulatory dimensions of artificial intelligence and emerging technologies across Greece and the European Union. We possess deep expertise in navigating complex and evolving frameworks, including the EU AI Act, GDPR, Greek Law 4624/2019, the Digital Services Act (DSA), and cybersecurity requirements under the NIS2 Directive. Our practice spans highly regulated and innovation-intensive sectors such as healthcare, fintech, logistics, and maritime technologies. We regularly advise on AI governance and risk classification, data protection and cross-border data transfers, algorithmic accountability and liability arising from automated decision-making, and intellectual property protection for software, algorithms, and AI-generated outputs. Our experience also includes negotiating sophisticated technology licensing and SaaS agreements, as well as supporting cross-border technology transactions. We have been actively involved in the development and deployment of advanced technologies, including AI-driven predictive analytics, digital health solutions, blockchain applications, and autonomous systems, ensuring both regulatory compliance and commercial viability.

We provide end-to-end legal support across the entire lifecycle of artificial intelligence and technology projects, from initial development and deployment to commercialization and scaling. Our work includes structuring, drafting, and negotiating technology and AI-related agreements, as well as advising on compliance with transparency, fairness, and risk obligations, particularly in relation to high-risk AI systems. We assist clients in designing robust data governance and cybersecurity frameworks aligned with EU and Greek law, while also managing intellectual property strategies covering patents, trademarks, and trade secrets. In addition, we support technology-driven investments, mergers and acquisitions, and joint ventures, offering commercially focused legal insight at every stage. Our team also advises on public procurement processes and regulatory approvals for advanced technology systems, with a strong emphasis on anticipating regulatory developments and mitigating forward-looking legal risk in an increasingly complex digital environment.

Greece is undergoing a period of accelerated digital transformation, supported by national and EU-level initiatives such as the Digital Europe Programme, Horizon Europe, and the National Digital Transformation Strategy. Artificial intelligence is increasingly being integrated into key sectors, including public administration, maritime logistics, healthcare, and agriculture, contributing to improved efficiency and innovation. At the same time, the regulatory environment is becoming more sophisticated, requiring businesses to navigate data protection obligations, cybersecurity requirements, and the evolving framework of the EU AI Act. Greece’s strategic position in sectors such as shipping, energy, and logistics creates distinct opportunities for the deployment of advanced technologies, while also introducing complex legal considerations in areas such as operational risk, data governance, and system accountability.

Greece presents significant opportunities for investment in artificial intelligence and technology-driven innovation, particularly as it continues to position itself as a regional hub for digital growth. Emerging areas of interest include smart infrastructure, autonomous and AI-assisted maritime systems, digital healthcare, fintech, e-commerce, and cybersecurity services. The availability of public funding through mechanisms such as the Recovery and Resilience Facility, combined with national investment incentives, further enhances the attractiveness of the Greek market. At the same time, the increasing convergence of artificial intelligence, digital infrastructure, and sustainability objectives is creating new avenues for growth, particularly in areas such as energy efficiency, environmental monitoring, and ESG-driven technological solutions.
