Thanks to the GDPR, CCPA and the increased focus on data privacy, companies and law firms have been increasingly focused on data privacy compliance.

The event will be a discussion with people who have been able to transition from an eDiscovery role to roles more focused on data privacy. It will be a lively discussion about the journey of these professionals and how they navigated their careers into the privacy field. The panelists will share the practices that worked for them, the benefits of certain certifications, the challenges they faced and how they succeeded in overcoming these challenges. We will also discuss how eDiscovery skills can be practically applied in the data privacy industry and steps that eDiscovery professionals can be taking to expand their expertise.
