Master Class: Privacy & Innovation

The commercial and strategic value of data is growing rapidly, in part driven by more powerful and easier-to-use AI. Insight-driven business models and value chains require companies to tap into customer data and extract insights and share these insights within the ecosystems, while at the same time preserving and protecting data privacy. Privacy protection has moved into the competitive space and became a success factor of data-driven innovation. In this Masterclass you will learn:

■ How privacy is affecting innovation, corporate culture, risk, and the financial bottom-line
■ What are the biggest legal, technological and business-related challenges ahead of us
■ Which approaches and methods can be used to solve some of the above-mentioned challenges
