On October 20, Alston & Bird will host a panel discussion with FTC Commissioner Julie Brill. The event will be broadcast as a webinar. Commissioner Brill will discuss the future of U.S. – European privacy with Senior Counsel Peter Swire. The discussion will be moderated by Partner Jim Harvey.
This timely discussion with Commissioner Brill follows the European Court of Justice’s rejection of the Safe Harbor framework in the judgment issued on October 6. That rejection affects thousands of businesses engaged in E.U. – U.S. data transfers. Meanwhile, the European Parliament, Council and Commission continue to move toward finalization of an E.U.-wide privacy regulation, the General Data Protection Regulation. In this challenging environment, the panel will discuss the future of data privacy in the European Union for U.S. businesses.
