Webinar on “Review of the Implementation of the EU’s General Data
Protection Regulation and the Way Forward”

Review and Practical Implementation of the EU General Data Protection Regulation and the Way Forward

This year marks the 5th anniversary of the implementation of the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which came into force on 25 May 2018. Over the past five years, the GDPR has become a benchmark for data protection, reshaping the way in which global businesses and organisations protect and handle personal data privacy.

To reflect on the implementation of the GDPR and how it has influenced global perspectives on data protection practices, the Office of the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data (PCPD) organises this webinar to discuss the latest regulatory landscape in the EU and the challenges faced by organisations in their personal data protection practices. Our renowned speakers will share their insights on the latest developments of the privacy laws and regulations in the EU, and their practical experience in relation to the implementation and enforcement of the GDPR in the past five years, as well as their views on the challenges faced by organisations.

We welcome data protection professionals, legal practitioners, and all who are interested to learn about the GDPR and personal data privacy to join us.

Enrolment is on a first-come-first-served basis.
