Explore the crossroads of privacy, access, governance, compliance, technology and law that matter to you, your career, and your organization
I found the entire event to be informative and interesting – I especially enjoyed the opportunity to connect with other attendees and learn more about their work and what was front of mind for them in terms of their work.
I also happened to discover a privacy breach in process at work during the event and was able to use information from the session that was ongoing to provide a compelling rationale for those responsible to (quickly) remedy the issue.

The Congress is the premier event designed for access and privacy leaders who are at the forefront of safeguarding data. This must-attend congress brings together the industry’s top minds—decision-makers, innovators, and influencers— to explore the latest developments and strategies in legislation, regulations, and technology
The Congress is THE place to mix, mingle, and debate with industry leaders, regulators, and expert speakers. Discussions are always interesting, challenging, and thought-provoking — but never the same-old, same-old
The Congress is a unique professional development opportunity to gather with senior-level delegates from public and private organizations, share insights, and learn from federal, provincial, and territorial governments, industry, academia and regulatory authorities
Thank you, so very much, for an excellent conference, This was so interesting (and eye-opening!).

The Congress is a unique event that’s notable for what it offers _ and for what it doesn’t offer: theory, sales pitches, recitations of annual reports, and typical rubber chicken lunches.
The Congress takes a refreshingly pragmatic approach and limits registration to ensure a high speaker-to-delegate ratio and a strong participatory experience
Sessions are longer than at most conferences so everyone has time to share their insights (though we’re flattered to see other conferences have started offering longer sessions).
Upholding tradition is important — so each Congress concludes with a Regulators’ Roundtable, an extended adn informal conversation with Information and Privacy Commissioners and Regulators.
Discussions are forward-looking and focus on practical application and practice, instead of dwelling on theory or history.
Scheduling ensures attendees have time to meet and mingle… that speakers have ample time to present their views… and that delegates have time to ask questions and get real, unscripted answers.
Our No-Pitch Policy means speakers must commit to not pitch their products or services—because you’re here to learn and be informed, not to be sold to.
Speakers are encouraged to leave their PowerPoint presentations behind so that everyone can engage in meaningful conversations, rather than focusing on a screen.
