Our Chief Executive, Marcial Boo, and Lauren Coldwell, one of our Data Protection Officers, recently attended the Information Commissioner Office’s (ICO) annual Data Protection Practitioner’s Conference.

Marcial presented our work on artificial intelligence and new technologies, highlighting the risks of perpetuating bias. He also spoke about the impact of digital exclusion. Lauren spoke on an expert panel chaired by the Information Commissioner and covered topics such as job sharing the Data Protection Officer role, initial thoughts on the proposed Data Protection and Digital Information Bill, and how to build internal support for data protection that enables the goals of an organisation.
