Is this Exciting Privacy and Data Governance
Congress for You?
Privacy and Access Council of Canada offers a congress where delegates have a realistic opportunity to attend the sessions of interest. Plenaries and breakout sessions are longer than usual , and formal remarks are shorter, leaving time for speakers and delegates to engage in genuine conversation. And we ask speakers to offer practical guidance borne of their experience (not just theoretical advice or historical reviews) that delegates can put to work in their own organizations.
Learn, share and network at the 2016 National Privacy & Data Governance Congress. Join industry experts, risk management professionals, thought leaders and regulatory authorities to explore critical connections between privacy, access, security and compliance.
Join speakers, delegates and thought leaders with shared interests in privacy, access and security. Colleagues from public and private institutions, federal, provincial and territorial governments, industry, academia and regulatory authorities will meet in a relaxed setting to enjoy workshop, breakout, keynote and plenary sessions.
Congress 2016 takes a refreshingly practical approach. Breakout sessions are longer than at most conferences, but formal presentations are shorter. Speakers offer practical examples and case studies, but are discouraged from using PowerPoint or similar tools (or distractions).

What previous attendees say
Interesting, new speakers — not the same folks saying the same things over and over. Executive Director, Office of the Information & Privacy Commissioner of Ontario.
I thought your event was the best event I have been to in years. It really was a mixed bag of different approaches with the workshops, keynotes and panel discussions. I also thought it was very honest and open discussion of serious issues that we face with privacy and access. You had advocates for leveraging private information to create greater convenience for the consumer as well as privacy advocates for doing whatever you can to protect your private information. Project Manager, Service Alberta.
