L’articolo scritto dall'avvocato Mauro Festa, partner dello Studio, e pubblicato sulla Rivista "ALL-IN Giuridica" (editore SEAC), analizza le interazioni tra il Regolamento Generale sulla Protezione dei Dati 2016/679 (GDPR) e Regolamento 2024/1689 (AI Act), recentemente approvato dal Parlamento Europeo, evidenziando le sfide e le opportunità derivanti dalla loro applicazione integrata. Vengono approfonditi i principi normativi, le metodologie di valutazione del rischio, le criticità operative e le prospettive future per le aziende che operano con sistemi di intelligenza artificiale.
L’integrazione tra GDPR e AI Act rappresenta un elemento cardine della strategia digitale dell’Unione Europea, volta a promuovere l’innovazione tecnologica nel rispetto dei diritti fondamentali. Questo articolo esamina il quadro normativo che regola la protezione dei dati personali e l’utilizzo responsabile dei sistemi di intelligenza artificiale.

“Compliance management nelrapporto di lavoro”, Giuffrè Editore, by Federico Manfredi, Ivan Cartocci and Chiara Romeo, explores ‘compliance’ in human resources management, proposing corporate and legal tools to adapt to an increasingly complex and changing regulatory landscape. Compliance, traditionally seen as a passive and administrative function, is becoming a competitive lever for companies, which are called upon to implement innovative strategies that not only comply with regulations, but also use them as competitive levers, especially in the HR function.
The handbook describes each HR process - such as job design, personnel selection, training, performance appraisal and industrial relations - providing for each of these activities the most appropriate practices to adapt to current labour law regulations.
The management of operational and legal risk in HR is also analysed, providing a ‘risk score’ approach to quantify and mitigate the risks of HR non-compliance and/or litigation.
Finally, competitive solutions are proposed that - through successful case studies - offer insights into the implementation of compliance in a new strategic key, with the aim of providing companies with a flexible and adaptive HR management, integrated with global strategies and able to actively contribute to market competitiveness.

The reputation of a trademark can be proven through various forms of evidence, with no strict requirement for quantitative data
It is sufficient to prove reputation in a single member state
A lower degree of similarity is required to assess unfair advantage based on the reputation of an earlier mark under Article 8(5), provided that the public perceives a link between the marks

“Il lavoro somministrato: tutta la disciplina, i profili illeciti e le novità introdotte dal Decreto PNRR-BIS”, MAGGIOLI Editore, by Federico Manfredi, Ivan Cartocci and Chiara Romeo, is a comprehensive guide aimed at labour law and human resources management professionals. The textbook explores in detail labour administration, a form of employment that allows companies to use workers through an employment agency, combining flexibility and protection for the worker.
Organised into nine chapters, the book explores the organisational and economic advantages of administered labour, the various regulatory aspects, possible irregularities and recent legislative changes, including those of the PNRR-BIS Decree. The latter introduced new provisions to counter illegal forms of administration, such as fraudulent ones, and tightened sanctions. The book does not limit itself to theoretical analysis, but also includes a practical template of contractual models for the day-to-day management of the administration relationship.
The work discusses the role of administered labour in the European market and its impact on human resources strategies, considering its function in promoting flexibility, reducing costs and quickly adapting resources to production needs, while maintaining a fair balance between rights and economic interests.
Margherita Barié, along with Giulia Panigazzi, co-authored the article about the European Union legal updates: case law analysis and intelligence.
The different types of marks reproducing the same sign can co-exist as long as each mark meets the requirements specific to each type
The possibility for proprietors of collective marks to rectify irregularities by amending the regulations of use does not constitute a violation of the principle of equal treatment.
A collective mark will not be considered misleading simply because the regulations governing its use include specific conditions regarding the quality of the goods and services protected

Goods or services are not regarded as being similar to, or dissimilar from, each other on the grounds that they appear in the same or different Nice classes
That virtual goods may depict, emulate the functions or be the virtual equivalent of real-world goods is not in itself sufficient to establish identity or similarity to real-world counterparts
When the comparison of goods and services involves virtual goods, this implies the application of similarity criteria in novel situations that for now cannot be regarded as well known and must be supported by substantive evidence

“Il Rapporto di Lavoro Dirigenziale” authored by Federico Manfredi, edited by SEAC, is a practical and in-depth guide on the subject of managerial employment in the context of Italian labour law. It explores the regulatory and contractual specificities governing the relationship between managers and employers, highlighting the particularities of this figure that, although belonging to the world of employment relationships, maintains characteristics of high autonomy and responsibility.
The text deals with the main aspects of managerial work, starting from the attenuated nature of subordination that characterises it, up to the remuneration, trade union and legal dynamics. The figure of the general manager is analysed, with his or her tasks, rights and duties, together with the procedures for terminating the employment relationship and the specific protections linked to the termination of this contract.
Through a combination of legal analysis and practical cases, the book provides a detailed understanding of the challenges and ambiguities that characterise the managerial relationship. It is aimed at executives, entrepreneurs, lawyers and HR professionals, offering a valuable reference tool for dealing with the complexities of executive management in business.
Margherita Barié, along with Giulia Panigazzi, co-authored the article about the European Union, legal updates about case law analysis and intelligence
The EUIPO Cancellation Division held that black verbal elements on gold/pink wine bottles – particularly the word “SENSI” – were sufficient to make the 3D sign as a whole distinctive
Assessment of distinctiveness of a 3D mark must be based on the overall impression of the combination of the shape and the elements to which it extends, in relation to the goods in question, including verbal and/or figurative elements
The ruling indicates that when the size of the verbal element included in a 3D trademark is big enough to be clearly identified as distinctive and has a sufficient impact on the overall impression of the sign, it makes the 3D sign as a whole distinctive

A position mark is distinctive when it deviates significantly from the sector’s customary practices or usages
The average consumer does not usually assume the origin of goods based on the shape and/or position of a sign, in the
absence of further graphic/textual elements
Market customs, the existence of counterfeiters and previous EUIPO practice are irrelevant for the purpose of
determining the distinctiveness of a position mark

Giulia Panigazzi, along with Margherita Barié, co-authored the article “General Court provides guidance on what constitutes proof of reputation of earlier mark” published on WTR Daily.
In assessing the reputation of an earlier mark in the European Union, the evidential value of a document varies depending on whether the period covered is close to or distant from the filing date of the later mark
Scientific or public-interest press resulting from independent research has evidential value in itself, while evidence consisting of promotional press shall be supported by proof of dissemination
Presence on the Internet, through websites or social media, may contribute to the reputation of a mark when it is supported by independent data and information on the users and their activity on such platforms

The authors focused on Trusts as an efficient tool to preserve estates in consideration, among other things, of the recent instructions released by the Italian Revenue Agency which – after years of debate – finally recognized the key principle that the time of taxation is not when the assets are contributed to the Trust by the settlor but the later moment when assets are assigned to the Trust’s beneficiaries.

What about the legal capital? Our Dario Latella wrote an article to demonstrate that such question is faced by the lawyers in order to support the function of rules that seem to be anachronistic, inefficient or, in any case, not suitable for carrying out the goals of EU laws on company’s capital.
Moreover, the financial crisis (pandemic or structural) has made the legal capital an empty concept. The topic is discussed both from a legal and economic perspective, due to the differences between the main legal systems (essentially, US and Europe) and the evidence given by the Law and Economics Analysis of the efficiency of the s.c. "solvency" test.
This article argues with the possibility of imagining a sort of conversion of the legal capital into the risk of the loss of net assets and of transferring the matter of poor capitalization of companies on the insurance market.

The weak distinctive character of the earlier mark does not, in itself, preclude a likelihood of confusion with a later mark
