Frey will be part of the summit’s selected group of panellists and discuss about Data Privacy and Intellectual Property Considerations; organizations have a unique set of data privacy challenges and threats internally and externally to not only cope with but overcome as they move towards greater efficiency. There is a complicated legal framework governing IP rights and assets globally and subsequently IP executives take maximum use of protocols and procedures in order to full comply with all relevant regulations. Topics discussed will include:
- Data privacy and effective management of information
- Proactive strategies to alleviate data privacy concerns
- Adhering to existing and emerging data privacy laws and regulations such as General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) and related California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and Biometric Privacy Law (BIPA)
