The Greater Bay Area is witnessing a historic policy breakthrough: cross-border data flows are finally being opened through new “whitelist” mechanisms and pilot zones. But data crossing the border is only the first step—the real value lies in turning that data into AI-ready assets that power smarter legal practice. This seminar unpacks the latest NPC policy proposals, examines the “Hetao” data green channel, and explores how professional data services are transforming raw legal data into actionable intelligence. Join us to understand the “data bridge” that will define the future of legal practice in the GBA.
