Trends in the global processing of data, developments in new technologies, privacy enforcement actions and government surveillance put international privacy at the center of the global law and policy agenda. Government regulators, policymakers, legal experts, and industry players need to find solutions to cross-border conflicts and to the issues presented by innovative technologies. This conference seeks to create a robust, but informal dialog that will explore possible solutions to current questions arising from the international legal framework, infrastructure architecture and commercial practices. The conference will use a unique format. Each panel will start with a short presentation on the technological and business context to set the stage. The panel will be an informal, moderated roundtable discussion with a select group of experts followed by a question and answer session from the audience.

The Foundation will host a discussion on Big Data, Governance, and Regulation in Washington, DC.
A recent WSJ article entitled Big Data Looms as Next Battle in Europe underscores the friction and uncertainty caused by the changing nature of how digital assets for complex analytics are processed, regulated, and governed. Key aspects of the discussion are the issues of legitimacy and fairness. For big data initiatives to be a success, their processes need to be seen as fair by consumers, regulators, policymakers, and advocates. Yet, how is fairness around big data work established? These issues will be examined as well as:
- How to bridge American concepts of innovation with data protection regimes in other countries.
- How understand the legal basis for big data in European-inspired data protection programs.
- Building confidence around big data processes so that they are deemed fair by external constituents.
