Five Years of GDPR: An Update

Ireland has established its position as a global technology hub and gateway to EU markets for many leading US companies. As a result, the Irish Data Protection Commission has an important and influential role in enforcing EU privacy and data protection rules.

We are delighted to invite you to an interactive forum with two Deputy Commissioners at Latham & Watkins LLP in San Francisco. You will receive invaluable insights on their perspective of GDPR five years on from its introduction. In addition, our leading privacy specialist from McCann FitzGerald LLP, Paul Lavery, will provide practical solutions to the main challenges that have arisen for US companies since the introduction of GDPR. IDA Ireland will also provide insights on doing business in Ireland and this will be followed by an interactive panel discussion with the Data Protection Commission, Paul Lavery and Elena Elkina.
