With the release of the European Commission's proposals for the revision of the Data Protection Directive expected in early 2012, the 2nd Annual European Data Protection and Privacy Conference offers an opportunity to hear from all the key policymakers and stakeholders involved. Find out how the new legal framework is likely to affect the shape of the data protection and privacy landscape both on a European and global level, and what measures need to be taken now in order to prepare for the changes ahead.

Key topics to be discussed include:

- Ensuring co-ordinated and harmonised data protection laws across the EU

- What will the effect of the new privacy rules be on the online lives of EU citizens?

- Fighting terrorism and cyber-crime - Where does the balance lie between security and privacy rights?

- Rebuilding consumer confidence in data protection laws?

- What shape for globalised data protection and privacy laws in the 21st century?
