The NSA-Affair unleashed by Edward Snowden’s leaks exposed dramatic differences between the United States and Europe on the subject of data privacy. On the occasion of World Data Privacy Day (January 28, 2017), the Goethe-Institut and the German Law Journal host an evening focusing on this crucial issue.
A transatlantic roundtable discussion will feature several of the contributors to the forthcoming book entitled Privacy and Power: A Transatlantic Dialogue in the Shadow of the NSA-Affair (Cambridge University Press 2017). The book, edited by Washington & Lee University Law Professor Russell Miller, collects thirty contributions from American and European scholars, policy-makers, and privacy practitioners, who reflect on the issues of privacy, data-protection, and intelligence oversight as they were brought into sharp relief by Snowden’s revelations. The different perspectives that emerge are sharply summarized by several chapters with the claim that “the European need to grow up” and “the Americans need to obey the law.” The roundtable participants will consider their contributions to the book and reflect on developments in the years since Snowden’s leaks. Among the book’s contributors who will participate in the roundtable discussion are:
Margaret Hu, Professor, Washington & Lee University School of Law
Ronald D. Lee, Partner at Arnold & Porter, former NSA-General Counsel
Russell Miller, Professor, Washington & Lee University School of Law (editor / moderator)
Dawn Nunziato, Professor, George Washington University Law School
Followed by a reception and the premiere of the site-specific films produced by the American and European theater partners in P3M5, the Goethe-Institut’s transatlantic theater project on differing views of privacy.

The Day commemorates the 1981 signing of Convention 108, the first legally binding international treaty dealing with privacy and data protection. Data Privacy Day is a celebration for everyone and held on January 28th every year.”

How to Comply with the GDPR While Unlocking the Value of Big Data
Broadcast Date: Tuesday, January 31, 2017
Time: 8:30 – 9:30 am PT, 11:30 am – 12:30 pm ET, 16:30 – 17:30 GMT
The ability to anonymize data sets of personal information opened up vast opportunities in the commercial sector in terms of targeted marketing and business insights. At the same time, rapidly evolving abilities of “big data” algorithms combined with proliferating online databases have made re-identification a looming threat for individuals.
These technological advancements helped precipitate the GDPR and other emerging data protection regimes. Since all major companies now rely on big data for analytics, machine learning, and artificial intelligence, it’s critical that companies enable compliance in a way that allows for the irreplaceable value of their data assets to be utilized.
The challenge now is how to comply with GDPR and other data protection regime requirements while tapping into the increasingly necessary business value that big data can provide. While difficult, solutions are emerging to provide for both.
Join us for this timely educational online conversation, featuring some of the leading thinkers in the privacy field and discover:
- How to understand GDPR compliance obligations as a potential business enabler, rather than a disabler of business objectives.
- How to achieve balance between proper data protection and responsible utilization of big data’s powerful analytic abilities.
- Effective technical tools available right now to help you navigate your regulatory requirements.
Time will be made available for your questions to be answered, so we’re encouraging you to submit any you may have (which will be read anonymously) ahead of the web conference to: [email protected]
To gain insight into the issues that will be discussed during the program, we recommend that you download and read this specially prepared white paper in advance: Meeting Upcoming GDPR Requirements While Maximizing the Full Value of Data Analytics: Balancing the Interests of Regulators, Data Controllers and Data Subjects.
Panelists:
Gary LaFever, CEO, Anonos
Mike Hintze, CIPP/US, Hintze Law, formerly Chief Privacy Counsel and Assistant General Counsel, Microsoft
Gwendal Le Grand, Director of Technology and Innovation, CNIL
