In a Westlaw Today article, partners Regina Sam Penti and Ama Adams discussed key restrictions, risks and opportunities under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act for AI and technology companies, particularly those with significant international ties.
The article examines the practical impact of strict foreign control restrictions, technology licensing limits, and related compliance obligations under the bill for AI and technology companies, and offers strategies for managing these risks in the context of mergers, acquisitions, corporate restructuring, debt arrangements involving technology and IP as collateral, and complex public company ownership structures.
Regina is a partner in the technology and IP transactions practice and co-lead of the firm’s artificial intelligence (AI) industry group. Ama is managing partner of the firm’s Washington, D.C. office, co-chair of the national security practice, and a partner in the firm’s litigation and enforcement practice.
