Event Overview

On April 17th and 18th, 2024, Microsoft is hosting a summit for its VIRGO EMEA legal network that will focus on building on and developing the knowledge and expertise of the network to support and enable the deployment of responsible AI solutions.

The summit, which will be held at Microsoft’s premises in Brussels, Belgium, is a not-to-be-missed opportunity to capture the information needed to understand Microsoft’s positions and build expertise for customer negotiations. We will be focusing on Microsoft’s responsible AI journey and Microsoft’s AI products, in particular the legal questions that accompany them. We will also be presenting on topics like data protection and competition law. We will also be offering different workshops on Microsoft’s agreements and on “How to navigate Microsoft” as well as CoPilot demos. In addition, there will be ample opportunity to network.
