Are you one of the 50% who won’t be GDPR ready by next May?

The GDPR is coming: don’t be concerned, be compliant.

September 5, 2017 10:00 am GMT

If 4% of your global turnover, or up to €20 million was at risk, would your business leaders sit up and listen? Well, failure to comply with the EU GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) legislation which comes into effect next May means just that. And at recent count, it didn’t seem that enough companies were taking it seriously. Gartner predicts that by the end of 2018, more than 50% of companies affected by the GDPR will not be in full compliance with its requirements.

The GDPR will impact every organisation that processes the personal data of EU residents (whether you’re in the EU or not). And that throws up huge questions within businesses about data strategy and compliance going forward. How do you identify those risks associated with the GDPR? How do you then build a business case for privacy and data security? And then there’s data governance across the enterprise. Not to mention getting the balance right between addressing compliance without sacrificing competitiveness. If these issues are concerning for you, join this roundtable to discuss this and more.
