Join the U.S. Chamber of Commerce for a summit for all things related to data privacy. A day of programming will feature discussions on the policy issues surrounding consumer data and the businesses that use it. As data and digital tools are helping American businesses grow, the U.S. Chamber has made data privacy a priority. The Chamber’s tech policy hub – C_TEC – released proposed federal legislation this year that addresses the need for a national data privacy framework. Pre-empting a patchwork of state regulations would provide certainty to businesses and protection for consumers. As is the nature of the Chamber, this event will bring together a network of problem solvers and creative thinkers for a variety of discussions about the future of tech innovation and ways to protect individual privacy while promoting innovation and certainty.

The annual Privacy Enhancing Technologies Symposium (PETS) brings together privacy experts from around the world to discuss recent advances and new perspectives on research in privacy technologies. PETS addresses the design and realization of privacy services for the Internet and other digital systems and communication networks.

Please join Charter Communications and the Future of Privacy Forum for a conversation with two leading members of Congress who will share their perspective on this important issue and potential legislative solutions.

This event will feature Rep. Jan Schakowsky, Chair and Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers, Ranking Member of House Energy and Commerce Subcommittee on Consumer Protection and Commerce.

A light breakfast will be served. Please email [email protected] to RSVP.

The USENIX Conference on Privacy Engineering Practice and Respect (PEPR) is a single-track conference focused on designing and building products and systems with privacy and respect for their users and the societies in which they operate. Our goal is to improve the state of the art and practice of building for privacy and respect and to foster a deeply knowledgeable community of both privacy practitioners and researchers who collaborate towards that goal.

For August, we’re thrilled that NIST will join us to share an updated draft of their Privacy Framework to seek feedback prior to its planned October 2019 release.

Join us at 6pm for networking. Program starts at 6:30pm.

Presenters include:

• Naomi Lefkovitz, Senior Privacy Policy Advisor and Lead, Privacy Framework, NIST
• Ellen Nadeau, Deputy Manager, Privacy Framework, NIST

The aim of the symposium is to foster interaction among diverse communities of research and practice using contextual integrity to reason about privacy, and to design and evaluate, craft regulation, and generate formal logics for privacy.

As the goal of the workshop is to foster discussion around works in progress, the workshop will not publish formal proceedings (so as to not preclude the publication of subsequent versions of those works, improved by workshop feedback). However, with authors’ permission, we will post accepted submissions on the website.
