✻ 2:00 PM – 5:00 PM
⍠ Suitable for in-house counsels, data protection officers and data protection compliance teams
Many organisations in Singapore engage in cross border transfers but what are some of the potential pitfalls every compliance team should be aware of when transferring data across borders, and what are some tools that can help?
Learn in this workshop how your organisation can get ready in an era where cross border transfers are becoming more complex, as we take you through a brief overview of issues in cross border transfers, practical scenarios and how the new Joint Guide to ASEAN Model Contractual Clauses (MCCs) and EU Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) can help with certain transfers.
✻ 2:00 PM – 5:00 PM
⍠ Suitable for data protection officers in SMEs, early career privacy professionals, chief data officers, AI/data product developers and their technical teams
In today's data-driven world, organisations face increasing challenges in securing personally identifiable information (PII). To address such challenges, one effective approach lies in following data anonymisation best practices. Join us for a scenario-based workshop to explore the principles and practical applications of data anonymisation and discover how anonymisation can be effectively utilised with a hands-on exercise using the PDPC's Data Anonymisation Tool.
Note: As the workshop involves the management of the Data Anonymisation Tool, organisations are encouraged to register a member of their technical team for the workshop if desired.
✻ 2:00 PM – 5:30 PM
⍠ Suitable for data protection officers, business users and chief data officers who are starting to use data to generate insights
With the ever-growing digitisation and increasing volume of data collected, it is important for businesses to leverage on data analytics to keep up with the evolving consumer demands to thrive in the digital economy. Join us at this workshop to find out how you may leverage the power of data analytics to gain deeper consumer insights and scale up your business using data.
✻ 1:30 PM – 4:30 PM
⍠ Suitable for policymakers from Asia, academic experts and industry
Learn how to implement and achieve transparency and explainability in practice by drawing from examples within Meta products and those of the companies who participated in the third season of the Data Privacy Accelerator in 2022. Participants will be able to apply what they have learnt through a group exercise, allowing them to dig deeper into the types of explanations and how they can be applied appropriately within the user journey.
This event is a closed door event and is by invitation only.
Wednesday - Thursday, 19 - 20 July 2023
✻ Day 1: 8:15 AM – 6:30 PM | Day 2: 8:15 AM – 4:30 PM

⍠ Suitable for governments, regulators, academia and industry
Regionally, there has been an increasing interest in understanding how generative AI systems and Large Language Models (LLMs) work, how existing and emerging governance frameworks would apply to generative AI systems, as well as exploring new regulatory and governance approaches of these technologies. Leveraging the FFP APAC office's ongoing work on Generative AI, this roundtable will collectively explore the intersection of the technical underpinnings and regulation of generative AI systems and LLMs.
This event is a closed door event and is by invitation only.

This event is a closed door event and is by invitation only.
