China has recently introduced key policies in cross-border data transfer, cybersecurity and Artificial Intelligence. In August 2023, China unveiled the inaugural Generative Artificial Intelligence Service Management Interim Measures, outlining regulations governing AI services, including data training, manual annotation, and user information. In December 2023, the draft Cybersecurity Incident Reporting Management Measures established reporting standards and guidelines for handling cyber breaches. Most recently, the new rules for cross-border data transfer were launched in March.
To gain a comprehensive understanding of the current landscape, it is crucial to explore the latest policies on cross-border data transfers, data authentication, and data sharing. Understanding these policies means foreign companies can adopt a global approach to cybersecurity and compliance, enabling them to review and enhance their regional cybersecurity policies and practices.
The European Chamber's Cybersecurity Conference 2024 will bring together professionals and experts from various sectors, including law and consulting firms, industrial players, and major data processors to share their insights on the future of China’s data flow security landscape and possible solutions for all relevant parties.

In recent years, confidence in the Chinese market has experienced a significant decline. Government policies have increasingly prioritised ideology over economic concerns, even as China grapples with mounting challenges, including the repercussions of its zero-COVID policy, escalating geopolitical tensions, surging debt levels, and sluggish consumption growth. This shift has cast doubts on the reliability, predictability, and efficiency that were once pillars of China's economic success.

As one of the major annual events of the European Union Chamber of Commerce in China, the Cybersecurity Conference has been held for six consecutive years since 2016, becoming a well-recognised industry event on cybersecurity and data compliance for foreign companies operating in Chinese market, due to its focus on legislative developments and interpretation of relevant regulations.

A number of cybersecurity-related regulations have been published and implemented over the past year, including the Measures for Cross-border Data Transfer Security Assessments, Measures for the Standard Contract for the Outbound Transfer of Personal Information, the Personal Information Protection Certification Regime and the Interim Measures on the Administration of Generative Artificial Intelligence Services. Of particular note, in August 2023, the State Council released its Opinions on Further Optimising the Foreign Investment Environment and Increasing Efforts to Attract Foreign Investment, and in September, the Cyberspace Administration of China issued a draft Provisions on Regulating and Promoting Cross-border Data Transfers, which aims to adjust the current regulatory framework for outbound data flow, sending positive signals on encouraging foreign investment and promoting cross-border data transfer in a safe and orderly manner.
