Where?

Technopolis, Mechelen

GDPR: WILL YOU BE ACCOUNTABLE OR RESPONSE-ABLE IN 2018?

GDPR: not a buzzword! What does this really mean and why is it important that companies large and small prepare today?

With the General Data Protection Regulation entering into force in the spring of 2018 all organizations must prioritize the evaluation of the compliance of their IT applications and infrastructure with this new personal data privacy law.
We will explore how GDPR is different from the 1995 EU Data Protection Directive and what challenges organizations will need to overcome to address GDPR compliance.
In these sessions you will also discover how you as a company can prepare yourself for the GDPR using a pragmatic framework adapted to your current environment. We will also show you a roadmap and engagement model that can help you get ready for GDPR.
