On May 21, 2025, the European Commission adopted a new proposal aimed at simplifying compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for small mid-cap companies (SMCs). The initiative intends to extend the derogations currently applicable to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to SMCs while maintaining the protection of individuals’ personal data.
