In short, Regulations gathers the rules that affect an Italian SME. Each card keeps the facts — verified against the official source and citable — sharply separate from the NomotecnIA reading. Content is evergreen: no publication date, only the latest update. That way you always know what is law and what is our interpretation.
01 · The library
The four rules that weigh most on an SME adopting AI in Italy. Each card follows the same model — the facts with the source, then our reading, always labelled as such — and shows status and latest update in plain sight.
The European regulation on artificial intelligence. It also applies to those who use AI, not only to those who develop it: most SMEs are deployers. Prohibitions (Art. 5) and AI literacy (Art. 4) are already in effect.
Italy's first comprehensive law on AI. A dual track alongside the AI Act: largely a law of principles and delegated powers, with the implementing decrees expected by October 2026.
The pre-existing foundation onto which AI regulation is grafted. The AI Act applies “without prejudice to” the GDPR: two cumulative tracks — complying with one does not exempt you from the other.
The first international standard for an AI management system. It is not law: it is a voluntary readiness framework that structures the governance required by the AI Act.
This library grows over time: new cards are added as the regulatory framework evolves.
02 · How to read a card
Each card is divided into two zones that never blur: it is what lets you cite us with confidence and tell the law apart from opinion.

03 · From the Observatory
When a rule evolves or deserves a broader reading, we discuss it in the Insights: dated editorial articles that always cite at least one card from this library. It is the other half of the method — the rule stays fixed and citable, the opinion carries a date.
From the rule to your business
The cards explain the framework. The AI Entry Assessment brings it down to your reality: a map of your systems, a gap analysis against the AI Act and ISO/IEC 42001, a prioritised roadmap.
