As many countries around the world experience a reduction in COVID-19 infections and attempt to reopen their economies, companies both large and small are faced with the daunting challenges of conducting business in a post-pandemic world.
Although these challenges vary from country to country, COVID-19 has changed the way we work and do business. The only questions are: will the pandemic's impact be permanent and if so what will be the long-term fallout? Will remote working, widely employed during restrictions, become the norm in the future? Or will employees gradually return to onsite offices, factories and warehouses?
Listen to a podcast based on a recent webinar conducted by the CMS Employment Group – and featuring speakers Jeremias Adams-Prassl, a law professor at Oxford University; Alison Woods, co-Head of Employment Law with CMS UK; and Daniela Krömer, an employment-law expert with CMS Austria. The podcast attempts to answer these questions by exploring how the modern workplace could look in the post-COVID-19 world.
The coronavirus is here, and we are dealing with it. Most international businesses have already had to implement a number of crisis measures.
In this podcast our employment law experts from across Europe will speak about the current developments, including some temporary measures introduced in many European jurisdictions and more widely. We will also anticipate the medium-/long-term impact from an employment perspective. The experts will cover most of Europe including France, Italy, Netherlands, UK, DACH, Benelux and the CEE region.
The COVID-19 (Coronavirus) situation is still developing and is being followed worldwide with great interest and obvious concern. For companies the virus poses challenges and raises various questions. What are your obligations as an employer? And what is the impact of the GDPR in this situation? What happens with liability in a force majeure situation?
In this podcast our employment and commercial experts share possible measures and practical recommendations. We touch on employers’ duties to staff and practical steps that businesses can take to reduce disruption. From a commercial perspective, we discuss whether the Coronavirus situation amounts to a Force Majeure event, whether the situation allows a party to terminate a contract or to request amendments.

Additionally, climate activist Luisa Neubauer discussed the impact of climate activism.
In this episode climate activist Luisa Neubauer shares her vision on the climate crisis. According to Neubauer, if we want to find a solution to the climate crisis, we “need people to act, to work together, that’s the only way… we need very smart collaboration, we need very smart solidarity, even.” She adds: “I wish we could find a more realistic way, a more rational way to deal with the crisis situation. The risk, scientists say, is as high as it was when they were about to drop nuclear bombs – this is where we are. This is not being apocalyptic but realistic.”

In this episode Laura Rudas, Executive Vice President Strategy at Palantir Technologies, shares how businesses would make better decisions if they have a better understanding of their data. However, technology also comes with its own set of challenges. On issues around data protection, Laura Rudas urges that we talk differently about data – instead of the risks of data, we should be concerned about the risks of not using data.

It’s Sunday afternoon and you have just looked at your company email. An anonymous person has sent you information that your star sales manager is stealing money from the company, has harassed other employees, and has probably passed proprietary information to the competitor… Is that true? How do you get to the bottom of this? What should you do? Internal threats can cause as much damage as those from the outside. But a quick and good reaction can help your organisation mitigate the bad effects.
CMS experts Katja van Kranenburg and Fleur van Assendelft de Coningh will tell you how to run internal investigations in the Netherlands and provide answers to these questions: What are the do’s and don’ts? What are the best practices? What recent developments are there?

As the most valuable sports franchise in the world, the NFL has an inherent advantage to remaining on the cutting edge of technology. This season saw the Dallas Cowboys revealing an all-new "Pose With The Pros" augmented reality (AR) activation to major fanfare. Now the team is bringing further AR innovation to AT&T Stadium. New technology allowed more than 93,000 fans to hold up smartphones to reveal images of 80 larger-than-life football players, all who were transported into the stadium digitally. Is this what the future holds for the stadium experience? What can we expect from the connected stadiums of the future?
In this podcast CEO of the Johan Cruyff Arena, Henk Markerink, will talk about how innovation and technology will enhance the future football experience.
When we’re talking about connected stadiums of the future Henk Markerink believes that it would be wrong to focus on the technical definition of connected. “Stadiums of the future will be connected socially and economically to society. One event at the Johan Cruyff Arena can have an economic impact to Amsterdam of around €50m”. He predicts that stadiums will become the “churches of the 21st century, with football as the religion”.

Ook Sanne Machiels (advocaat bij FG Lawyers) en Rijk Plasman (oprichter van de digitale munt Gulden) geven een reactie.
Van Kranenburg vertelt daarna in de rubriek 'De Toekomst van Werk' ook over de mogelijkheden van blockchain voor de verzekeringsbranche. Hoeveel eenvoudiger kunnen verzekeraars en verzekerden het zichzelf maken? De presentatie is in handen van Paul van Liempt.

Grote mobiliteits- en infrastructuurprojecten verlopen vaak niet vlekkeloos. Er ontstaan problemen bij de uitvoering en projecten vliegen budgettair geregeld uit de bocht. Recente voorbeelden zijn het stilleggen van het project Zuidasdok en de voortijdige beëindiging van het project knooppunt Hoevelaken. Publieke en private partijen staan soms lijnrecht tegenover. Waar komt dit door? En hoe kan én moet dit beter?
In deze podcast spreekt gespreksleider Harry Sterk, managing director van PPS Netwerk Nederland, met CMS-partners Petra Heemskerk en Arno Moret over hun ervaringen bij recente aanbestedingen en de do's en don'ts in PPS-projecten. Zij roepen de markt en overheid op om intensief te gaan samenwerken, aanbestedingsprocedures te vernieuwen en contracten vooral niet dicht te timmeren. Want alleen samen kunnen partijen de maatschappelijke opgaven rondom infrastructuur het hoofd bieden.

Gordon Einstein, who is a partner at Cryptolaw Partners, will be speaking about the U.S. regulation on STO's and ICO's. In the passionate talk Einstein gave at the tokenized securities event, he managed to cram an entire course of U.S. securities law into a one hour lecture. He starts his lecture by giving an insightful overview of the different types of securities and their respective requirements following from the securities regulations in the U.S.. After that he will share his views on how the regulations should be applied to tokenized securities and what, according to him, is the best way to issue tokenized securities in the U.S. If you are considering to issue security tokens in the U.S., or want to learn about U.S. securities regulations, there is possibly no better start than this keynote by Gordon Einstein.

Jochem Gerritsen, Director of Infloat, is specialised in tokenomics, tokenized business models and security tokens. In this podcast Jochem will discuss whether there is a need for blockchains that are specifically built to issue security or asset tokens. Currently most tokenized securities are being issued on the available public, permissionless blockchains. To issue a fully compliant security token though, two contradictory attributes have to be guaranteed. On the one hand securities cannot be issued anonymously, because companies have to know who their investors are and the tax authorities should be able to trace back the ownership trails of the securities. On the other hand you do not want to disclose everything about investors on a publicly accessible blockchain, the (financial)privacy of investors has to be protected. Do we need a technology that supports both these aspects?

Valuations remain high and new investments likely to be lower than in 2018. The market trend is still regarded as 'seller-friendly' for the time being. Political and economic uncertainty both are likely to affect future M&A transactions.

Panelists Harry Keen (CEO and Co-founder, Hazy), Stacey Seltzer (Partner, Prehype), Itxaso del Palacio (Investor), Matthew Price (Customer Connect Program Leader EMEA, Oracle) and Anela Musat (Partner, CMS London) share their experience.

CMS, together with one of Germany’s leading weekly newspapers, DIE ZEIT, hosted an exclusive reception on 23 January 2019 in Davos. At this reception Christian Sewing (CEO of Deutsche Bank AG) spoke about business challenges and the importance of trust and transparency during a one-on-one discussion.
Christian Sewing recounted what he first thought when he heard about the money laundering scandal at Danske Bank. "It's disappointing, not personally for me – but you have 92,000 people who are working every day to restructure Deutsche Bank. We got the feedback from regulators that our controls have improved. And if you have this kind of incident then, you’re disappointed", Sewing said. Asked about his reaction to the accusations, Sewing went on to say that "this is what you have to deal with, what leadership is all about. You collect yourself. You cooperate with the prosecutors. We think that there is no wrongdoing on our side".
