💡 Münster Colloquia 💡 Christiane Wendehorst spoke at the Münster Colloquia on EU Law and the Digital Economy organised by the Universität Münster on 11 January 2024. The topic of the event was the 𝐃𝐚𝐭𝐚 𝐀𝐜𝐭, the Regulation on harmonised rules for fair access to and use of data. The Data Act is an important milestone in the emerging law of the #data #economy. It regulates the conditions under which #value can be created from #data. 📊📈 Wendehorst is a well-known international expert in data law and data protection law. Together with Neil B. Cohen, Christiane Wendehorst has developed a set of 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐚 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐚 𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬 that take into account the interests of different stakeholders in the data economy and can be implemented in any legal system. (Access the Principles here: https://lnkd.in/d-rkiu83) 📝 ⚖ Additionally, Christiane Wendehorst is a member of the 𝐄𝐮𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐧 𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐭 𝐆𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐩 𝐨𝐧 𝐁2𝐁 𝐃𝐚𝐭𝐚 𝐒𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐥𝐨𝐮𝐝 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 for the European Commission. Within the framework of this Expert Group, Wendehorst has worked on developing contractual clauses for the relationship between a data holder and a third-party data recipient.

A number of aspects of the #dataact can be highlighted. It is noteworthy from a #competitionlaw point of view that the Data Act applies competition law principles to the protection of innovation. This competition law innovation protection can be found in precedents of refusals to supply involving intellectual property rights (e.g. Magill, IMS Health, Microsoft). It is the 'new product' element of the exceptional circumstances test that prevents copying of the innovation. (see: Case T-201/04, Microsoft, para. 632.) According to the Data Act: "aim of this Regulation is [...] to foster the development of new, innovative connected products or related services, stimulate innovation on aftermarkets." (recital 32.) Interestingly, the Data Act determines the character of a new product depending on whether the connected product from which the data are obtained is considered interchangeable or substitutable by users, i.e. whether the two connected products compete on the same product market. (ibid.) 🤔 In previous Court practice, the new product and substitutability were not explicitly related. In its decision in the Microsoft case, the Commission made this determination. (Case COMP/C-3/37.792 Microsoft, para. 466.)

📢 The final text of the Data Act 📜 was adopted on 27 November 2023. ❗ Our quick law review provides a useful practical summary of the main rules of the Act, including its purpose, who it is addressed to and what activities it covers. 👀
