about the event

Data Privacy Forum

Organizations and individuals face data privacy decisions and challenges on a daily basis. With ongoing data breaches and regulatory fines, many companies are ill-prepared for the data privacy requirements they face. These often arise from the internal conflict between meeting regulatory needs and implementing the technology and processes to achieve privacy goals. 2021 will also be welcoming many new privacy regulations across the globe and this inaugural Data Privacy Forum looks to bring together industry experts for round-table discussions on what is to come, and how to prepare for the challenges ahead.  

KORNERSTONE Institute along with PowerMind and our Knowledge Partner IAPP (International Association of Privacy Professionals) is organising the first virtual Data Privacy Forum in the Q2 of 2021, inviting over a dozen respected speakers from all corners of the business community to provide insights to the industry in aspects relating to the themes in focus.
