Gain practical insights into the European AI Act and the EU’s AI Omnibus amendments, with particular attention to extraterritorial implications for jurisdictions including Singapore. The seminar examines compliance timelines, regulatory burdens, and risk-management obligations for lawyers advising clients operating in or targeting the EU market.
This 3-hour workshop arms Singapore-based and international lawyers with actionable insights into the European AI Act, a regulation shifting beneath practitioners’ feet even as it takes effect. Prohibited AI practices have been enforceable since February 2025, with general-purpose AI obligations following in August 2025.
The remaining high-risk obligations covering recruitment, education, law enforcement, and critical infrastructure were set to apply on 2 August 2026, but the EU’s AI Omnibus, expected to be adopted by July 2026, is poised to push those deadlines back by over a year. The rules may change just weeks before they were supposed to bite.
The Act’s extraterritorial reach and severe penalties directly impact Singapore-based developers, financial institutions, and multinationals engaging with European markets. Yet organizations cannot pause compliance: if the Omnibus is not adopted in time, the original deadlines apply in full.The session covers the Act’s structure, definitions, and risk classification system alongside key Omnibus changes, and equips participants with compliance strategies built to withstand the regulatory ground still moving beneath them.

Programme Overview
Tuesday 30th June 2026
(1.5 hours)
This module covers the Act’s four-tier risk classification system and implementation timeline, from the prohibited practices already in force to the high-risk obligations now in flux. Rather than treating the framework abstractly, the session works through concrete scenarios relevant to Singapore practice: how extraterritoriality provisions reach Singapore-based developers, deployers, and firms whose AI outputs enter the EU market; where typical Singapore clients in fintech, healthtech, and enterprise AI fall within the risk tiers; and how the Act intersects with Singapore’s own AI governance framework, including the Model AI Governance Framework and IMDA guidelines. Participants will leave this module able to conduct a preliminary risk classification for their clients’ AI systems.
(1.5 hours)
This module moves from classification to action. Participants will work through enforcement mechanisms, documentation and conformity requirements, and the practical impact of the AI Omnibus amendments on compliance planning, including the proposed delay of high-risk deadlines and new prohibitions that may take effect before the workshop date. The session addresses how to advise clients who must build toward current deadlines while preparing for rules that may shift, including developing phased compliance roadmaps that hold up regardless of the Omnibus outcome. Particular attention to healthcare, finance, and smart city applications, sectors where Singapore firms are most likely to encounter the Act’s requirements.
