Cheryl Seah

Cheryl is a Director at Drew & Napier LLC, where her key areas of practice are Technology, Media and Telecommunications, and Artificial Intelligence & Digital Trust. Cheryl advises companies ranging from Fortune 500 MNCs to local and foreign start-ups on legal and governance issues arising from their use of AI at all stages of the AI life-cycle: from procuring the computing resources, to the data used in model training, to the IP and liability issues arising from the output. Clients include legal technology providers deploying their products in Singapore, and companies who wish to customise their own generative AI applications to generate documents and code.
 
Cheryl also advises clients on regulatory matters, such as cybersecurity, payment services and gaming. She publishes frequently on legal issues arising from the use of AI with the Law Society of Singapore, and has conducted talks on AI for external organisations (e.g. IPOS International, LexisNexis SEA), regulators in an ASEAN jurisdiction, and a European university. She has also been invited to contribute her views on AI issues with research institutions such as the Global Cyber Security Capacity Centre at the University of Oxford, and the Global Index on Responsible AI.

In her previous role as a legislative drafter in the Legislation Division of the Attorney-General’s Chambers (Singapore’s central law drafting office), she has drafted legislation across a wide variety of subjects, with a focus on transport (including autonomous vehicles), infrastructure, technology and civil procedure.
