Introduction

In a data economy, businesses have large amounts of data available that enable them to make data-based decisions (data-driven management), to develop data-oriented business models and to rethink innovation processes. This applies not only to tech companies, but increasingly to SMEs and start-ups. In many instances automated systems (e.g. artificial intelligence) are used to prepare or make business decisions on the basis of data or in the context of innovation processes. However, various legal issues arise from the different stages in the data life cycle. Thus, data-driven decision making and data-oriented require a broad spectrum of competences and skills: an intertwined technical understanding, management know-how and profound legal
knowledge.

Against this background, the LL.M. on Data Economy Law was created within an Erasmus+ strategic partnership of four EU universities – University for Continuing Education Krems (Krems, Austria), Georg August University Göttingen (Göttingen, Germany), Masaryk University (Brno, Czech Republic) and Kazimieras Simonavicius University (Vilnius, Lithuania). The LL.M. is an innovative multinational program tackling current legal problems of digitization. It provides transdisciplinary education in the field of management, technology and law. Legal modules especially cover IT- and IP-Law, Data Law, Privacy and Data Protection, Trade Secrets, Competition Law and Transnational Business Law.


The program faculty includes the professors and senior researchers from all partner universities as well as experienced practitioners from European law firms and technology companies, who bring practical insights to the classroom.
