Session 2 | What’s in Play? National Security Scrutiny for Gaming and Interactive Media Companies

Gaming and interactive media companies are increasingly operating at the intersection of data, global investment and heightened regulatory scrutiny. As regulators focus more closely on how gaming businesses are structured and financed, and on how user data is collected, used and transferred, both companies and investors are encountering new and evolving regulatory touchpoints.

Drawing on experience advising gaming companies and investors, Cooley attorneys Mike Egan, Danny Grooms, Chris Kimball and Dillon Martinson will explore the impact on the gaming ecosystem. The discussion will highlight how these issues arise in practice and what companies and investors should be watching as scrutiny continues to expand.

Attendees will gain insight into:

  • How national security considerations are shaping gaming companies and investors beyond traditional CFIUS review
  • Why data governance, privacy, and cross-border or bulk data transfers are increasingly central to regulatory attention
  • How matters can evolve from counseling into investigations, enforcement or disputes
  • What experienced practitioners are seeing when engaging with regulators in high-stakes matters
