Bedell Cristin Partner to speak at GDPR seminar - What businesses should be thinking about now

Bedell Cristin Partner, Edward Drummond is one of the expert speakers discussing the implications of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the new EU Regime on data protection which will impact on businesses in the Channel Islands when it is introduced in May next year. 

Edward will address ‘how GDPR will affect the law on data protection and information governance and what businesses should be thinking about now’ in his presentation, which is part of a half day seminar on Thursday, 18th May at the Pomme d’Or Hotel, hosted and organised by Comsure.

Emma Martins, the Information Commissioner of Jersey & Guernsey, is also presenting at the event and she and Edward will join other speakers in a panel session at the end of the seminar to take questions from the floor.

The objective of the seminar is to outline the facts about GDPR, to address the significant business opportunities that arise and to examine how to achieve compliance cost effectively.

Edward commented:

"Jersey has a strong reputation for meeting international standards whilst reflecting the needs of the local industry. Applying compliance methods optimised to local law, specifically in the financial services industry, makes good business sense."
