Frequently Asked

Who is Vishal Akshintala?

A technology lawyer specializing in AI governance, data privacy, and space law advisory across India, the EU, UK, US, and APAC. NALSAR alumnus and ISO 42001 Lead Implementer, affiliated with Radhical Global Attorneys.

What does an AI governance audit involve?

Mapping an organization's AI systems against applicable frameworks — the EU AI Act, ISO/IEC 42001, India's DPDPA — to classify risk, flag gaps, and produce a remediation roadmap suitable for regulators or investor diligence.

Does the practice cover space law?

Yes — orbital data infrastructure, satellite AI systems, and jurisdictional questions in space governance, tracked against UNOOSA/COPUOS developments and the 1967 Outer Space Treaty.

How is this different from a generic compliance checklist?

Every classification is traced to a specific clause — EU AI Act Article 6, DPDPA Section 8, ISO/IEC 42001 Clause 6.1 — rather than a general compliance statement, so it holds up under actual regulator or investor scrutiny.
