The 10th Annual Privacy Law Scholars Conference (PLSC) @ Berkeley
Jun 1 – Jun 2 all-day
The 10th Annual Privacy Law Scholars Conference (PLSC) @ Berkeley  | Berkeley | California | United States

PLSC assembles privacy law scholars and practitioners from around the world to discuss current issues and foster greater connections between academia and practice. It brings together privacy law scholars, privacy scholars from other disciplines (economics, philosophy, political science, computer science), and practitioners (industry, legal, advocacy, and government).

PLSC is a paper workshop. There are no published proceedings, and after the event, papers are not available. Because authors’ drafts are works in progress, we do not publicly release these writings, nor do we publicize them (no Tweeting, blogging, etc.), as authors’ ideas are often inchoate and need incubation for full development.

At PLSC, papers workshops are led by a “commenter” who facilitates a discussion among participants on an author’s paper. Authors are encouraged to participate in “listening” mode. There are no panels or talking head events at PLSC.

All participants are expected to read and be prepared to discuss one paper per session (usually a total of 8 papers), and thus PLSC requires significant preparation. We recommended that participants devote 1.5 to 2 days of reading to prepare prior to the conference. One does not need to submit a paper to participate in PLSC–indeed most participants do not.

PLSC is an annual event, alternating between Berkeley Law and The George Washington University School of Law. Participation is by invitation only. Last year, PLSC had 260 participants.

INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF PRIVACY PROFESSIONALS PAPER AWARD

The International Association of Privacy Professionals (IAPP) is sponsoring an award for two papers presented at PLSC. The two winning authors will each receive $2500 from IAPP, an opportunity to present the paper at the IAPP Privacy Academy 2017 (travel will be provided for up to two authors of each paper), and an opportunity to publish an abstract or summary of the paper in the Privacy Advisor. The criteria are overall excellence and relevance to the practice of privacy law.

2017 AV Policy Series @ Washington, DC
Jun 2 all-day
2017 AV Policy Series @ Washington, DC | Washington | District of Columbia | United States

Join ATI for policy forums that bring key constituents together to craft a path forward to a modern mobility future. Four sessions over two months will move the needle on national policies and regulations to enable autonomous vehicle deployment.

Right now, there is a great deal of misunderstanding, fear and legitimate concern surrounding data use, ownership and privacy that could easily derail self-driving initiatives. Data is the lifeblood of innovation, and we must be able to collect and share this information appropriately in order to see the benefits of a truly autonomous transportation system.

Join us on June 2 for a broad discussion on:

  • Data Sharing
  • Data Security
  • Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning

This session will be a fascinating exploration of the policy challenge before us. NHTSA Associate Administrator for Safety Research Nat Beuse will join us once again, joined this time by the General Accounting Office’s David Wise (author of the 2016 Vehicle Cybersecurity report), Jamie Boone from the Consumer Technology Association, Lauren Smith from the Future of Privacy Forum as well as DLA Piper’s Elliot Katz.
