European Data Privacy Law is changing… a lot

·       EU General Data Protection Regulation

After a lengthy legislative process, the GDPR is finally ready. As the most significant overhaul of data privacy laws in Europe in twenty years, it will have a profound impact on Silicon Valley technology companies offering online services in Europe. The recently announced Privacy Shield will affect most US organisations that receive personal information from Europe.

In this free, two hour seminar on March 8th, leading EU privacy experts will explain the impact of these changes on Silicon Valley companies and technologies such as Big Data, Internet of Things, Apps and Cloud Computing.

Hosted by Al Gidari and Daphne Keller of the Stanford Center for Internet and Society, you'll hear from:

·       John Bowman, Senior Principal, Promontory (formerly the UK Government’s lead negotiator on the GDPR)

·       Dr Mark Watts, Head of Data Protection Law, Bristows LLP

·       Michael Spadea, Director, Promontory
