This copyrighted interview with Mihai Voicu, Partner at ONV LAW, discusses Romania's regulatory framework for AI, cryptocurrency, and blockchain. Key points include: the EU regulatory framework (AI Act, MiCA, DORA) is in place but institutional implementation lags; companies using high-risk AI in HR and credit decisions face significant liability; crypto classification and tax obligations create compliance risks; and blockchain applications in supply chains and document certification are near-term viable use cases. Voicu recommends founders integrate legal architecture from product inception, strategically choose authorization jurisdictions, and invest in clear product definitions.
