Impactful Policy Frameworks
German Supply Chain Due Diligence Act (LkSG) 2023
The German Supply Chain Due Diligence Act (Lieferkettensorgfaltspflichtengesetz - LkSG), effective January 1, 2023, obliges German companies with over 1,000 employees to establish due diligence processes to prevent human rights and environmental violations in their supply chains.
This policy directly impacts Siemens by increasing the need for transparent and traceable supply chains, potentially driving demand for digital solutions that enhance supply chain visibility and compliance.
European Union Artificial Intelligence Act (Proposed) 2024
The proposed EU AI Act, expected to be adopted in 2024, is a landmark regulation classifying AI systems based on their risk level, imposing strict requirements on high-risk AI applications in sectors like critical infrastructure and product safety.
For Siemens, this act necessitates robust compliance measures for AI-driven industrial automation and digital twin solutions, ensuring ethical development, transparency, and data security, while potentially shaping market standards.
EU Taxonomy Regulation 2020/852 (and Delegated Acts)
The EU Taxonomy Regulation, enacted in 2020 with ongoing delegated acts, establishes a classification system for environmentally sustainable economic activities, providing a common framework for investors and companies.
This regulation encourages Siemens to develop and promote green industrial technologies and solutions that meet the taxonomy's criteria, driving investments in sustainable infrastructure and manufacturing processes for its customers.
