10:00 am – 10:30 am ET	COFFEE BREAK
10:30 am – 12:30 pm ET	P2P BREAKOUT DISCUSSIONS TOPIC 1 – Evolving Notions of Privacy and Data Governance Description: The past year has seen the continued expansion of the work of data protection leaders. This session will explore how organizations are responding to new challenges and how leaders are dealing with a new broader governance and digital responsibility agenda. TOPIC 2 – State & Federal Privacy Legislation And Regulation Description: Our session will delve into the latest developments in state and federal privacy legislation and regulation. This covers new data minimization standards, California’s ongoing rulemaking efforts, and the House E&C ‘reset’ on data privacy efforts. We’ll explore the evolving legislative landscape and its implications for businesses and consumers alike. As the state privacy law continues to evolve rapidly, the focus of our conversation may shift to address areas of critical importance. TOPIC 3 – Global AI Legislation* Description: With the EU AI Act implementation reaching full speed, and new AI laws either adopted (South Korea), quickly advancing (Brazil), or being proposed (Japan) around the world, this session will look comparatively across jurisdictions to discuss implications, emerging compliance strategies, and best practices across industries. TOPIC 4 – Sovereignty, Localization, and Related Challenges to Effective Cybersecurity Description: An increasing number of regulations seek to restrict or limit organizations’ ability to process data in certain countries or outside of specific jurisdictions. These restrictions are creating significant challenges in terms of managing regular data flows, contracting with data handlers, and instituting important cybersecurity measures. Join us as we discuss the current environment and help us map unanswered questions and areas of concern.

1:45 pm – 3:45 pm ET	P2P BREAKOUT DISCUSSIONS TOPIC 1 – Enforcement of Privacy Laws: Trends and Takeaways Description: With lingering uncertainty about federal regulators’ priorities in the new Trump administration, agencies such as the FTC are likely to reshape enforcement away from the expansive interpretations of the Kahn FTC. What will this mean in practice? As new state privacy laws take effect with limited guidance, understanding the priorities of state enforcers will be essential, particularly in areas related to location, health, and other sensitive data. Attorneys General offices with significant resources, particularly in Texas and California, will be the major players to watch. TOPIC 2 – Federal and State AI Legislation and Regulation Description: This session examines the rapidly evolving landscape of AI regulation in the U.S. We’ll dive into the latest developments at both the federal and state levels, including newly enacted laws, proposed legislation, and updates to existing frameworks aimed at regulating high-risk and generative AI systems, frontier models, and sector-specific applications such as AI in employment. We’ll also unpack the shifting enforcement landscape—and what it means for businesses, developers, and consumers navigating the future of responsible AI. *As federal AI & privacy conversations continue to evolve rapidly, the focus of our conversation may shift to address areas of critical importance. TOPIC 3 – GDPR & AI Description: The EU AI Act is not the only AI Sheriff in town in the EU. Nearly six years into force, the GDPR’s application to AI presents many important questions, just as DPA’s enforcement actions with a focus on AI are visibly ramping up. Join us in discussing key topics such as lawful grounds for processing personal data for training AI models, the special case of processing sensitive data in the context of AI, Automated Decision Making and Article 22 GDPR, the right to an explanation, DPIAs for AI Systems and FRIAs under the EU AI Act, major DPA enforcement actions, and key policy debates at the intersection of data protection and AI, just as discussions of reopening the GDPR are starting in Brussels. TOPIC 4 – Data Transfers to Countries of Concern Description: How are organizations navigating emerging U.S. restrictions on data transfers to countries of concern, including China? These are reflected in the Department of Justice’s final rule, finalized pursuant to Executive Order 14117 (Preventing Access to Americans’ Bulk Sensitive Personal Data and United States Government-Related Data by Countries of Concern), as well as the new national legal framework established by PADFAA (Protecting Americans’ Data from Foreign Adversaries Act) aimed at addressing national security risks of sensitive personal and U.S. government-related data.
