BCLP's Atlanta office was established in 1909 and has deep roots in the Atlanta legal community, operating as Powell Goldstein Frazer & Murphy for nearly a century before merging with Bryan Cave in 2009. The Atlanta office is now one of the firm’s largest. Our attorneys have a long history of working with large and midsize international companies based in the Southeast, with lawyers practicing in the areas of antitrust, banking, business and finance, employee benefits, employment, M&A and corporate transactions, insurance, intellectual property and trade secrets, media and advertising, real estate, tax, technology and commercial transactions, and litigation.

Our Atlanta-based attorneys are often integral to firmwide support of national and global clients owing to BCLP’s “One Firm” way of doing business. The firm is known for its relationship-driven, collaborative culture and industry-shaping innovation, with efficient resourcing and technology tools allowing Atlanta attorneys to collaborate with colleagues around the world and help clients wherever they might be.

Our lawyers and staff are active members of the Atlanta community. Outside of work, we support a variety of community initiatives, including the Atlanta Children’s Center, Atlanta Legal Aid, Atlanta Volunteer Lawyers Foundation, Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Atlanta, the Cobb Chamber of Commerce, the Georgia Chamber of Commerce, the Georgia Asian Pacific American Bar Association, the Metro Atlanta Chamber of Commerce, True Colors Theatre Company, United Way and the Woodruff Arts Center.

Navigating the FemTech regulatory landscape

Security, scale or functionality – pick two. This computer science principle coined by the late Professor Anderson is particularly relevant to the FemTech industry. Anderson’s Rule states that for a system to provide high functionality and security, its access may need to be limited (small scale); alternatively, offering high functionality on a larger scale, may require an acceptance of risk, e.g. of inadvertent or deliberate disclosure of information. In real life systems - including FemTech - a balance must be struck. It is no surprise, then, that the regulatory landscape for FemTech is complex and fragmented. Different jurisdictions approach the question of health/medical data in diverse ways and apply different laws and standards to the protection of personal data. All these rules are ultimately intended to mitigate the risks to personal data posed by large databases of sensitive personal information while facilitating the benefits. In part two of our series, we examine the UK, EU and US regulatory privacy landscapes and enforcement priorities and how they apply to the FemTech sector. For more, read our previous article "What is femtech and how can it meet the privacy needs of its users?".
