Data protection and the developing regulatory framework
Description
With the uncertainty regarding the UK’s future relationship with the EU and with EU GDPR coming into force in the UK and across Europe, delegates will also examine the implementation issues affecting public and private sector organisations of varying scales. They will also consider the way forward for effective international collaboration at a governmental, regulatory and industry level.
Delegates will discuss the potential impact on organisations looking to be in
full compliance with EU GDPR and the possible implications of the forthcoming
UK Data Protection Act (2018). Further areas for discussion include
international issues such as cross-jurisdiction data storage; futureproofing
policy for developments in technologies such as M2M and AI; commercial and
service opportunities, and data use strategies being developed in anticipation
of the new regulatory environment. Additional sessions will look into latest
thinking on best practice in effective communication, building trust, offering
clear choices, and putting in place roles to meet new regulatory requirements
within organisations across sectors.
