SUMMARY:Privacy Puzzle: TERMINUS OR TURNING POINT? The Digital Omnibus and the future of GDPR and AI
DESCRIPTION:The European Commission’s announcement of its Digital Omnibus package proposal has set off one of the biggest privacy debates in years. On paper\, it promises modernisation and simplification\, but many are questioning what these potential changes could mean for the foundations of the GDPR. Is it an evolution or erosion of the gold standard that made it the global benchmark?  \nJoin our expert panel for early reactions as they weigh up the pros and cons. They’ll challenge assumptions\, discuss the details\, and explore what matters most for organisations potentially facing another wave of regulatory change.  \nWhat we’ll discuss:  \n\nThe biggest shifts proposed by the Digital Omnibus \nWhether the EU AI Act is already out of date and what it means for AI projects \nDoes merging data laws simplify anything in practice? \nWhether the GDPR can remain the global benchmark with rising pressure to ‘modernise’ \n\nThe Digital Omnibus could redefine the direction of the GDPR and AI governance for years to come. Don’t miss this opportunity to join the debate and stay ahead of the potential changes. We’ll close with a live Q&A\, giving you the chance to ask questions and leave with a clearer view of what to monitor as the proposals move through the legislative process.

SUMMARY:Privacy Puzzle: MINDING THE MACHINES: AI Officer vs DPO
DESCRIPTION:According to McKinsey’s latest Global Survey on AI\, over 75% of organisations are using AI in at least one business function. As AI reshapes business operations\, many companies are appointing AI Officers to lead strategy\, ethics\, and risk management. Others are relying on their DPOs to manage oversight and guide responsible deployment. But who is best placed to govern the machines—a seasoned DPO or a dedicated AI Officer? \nJoin David Smith\, AI Sector Lead and DPO at The DPO Centre\, Angelique Hamilton DPO at The DPO Centre Canada\, Todd Daubert\, Partner at Dentons\, Washington DC\, and James Robson\, Data Protection Officer at The Labour Party\, as they tackle some of the most pressing AI governance questions facing organisations today: \n\nWhere do DPO responsibilities end and AI Officer duties begin?\nHow do the different UK-EU-US regulatory approaches affect AI governance?\nWhat are the risks of misalignment between AI innovation and data protection obligations?\nAre organisations ready for AI at scale?\n\nWhether you’re exploring AI deployment\, managing risk\, or redefining what your data governance should look like\, this is a must-attend webinar for leaders deciding who should really be minding the machines. \nRegister here

SUMMARY:The Privacy Puzzle: FROM GDPR TO DUA: Compliance reform or strategic pivot?
