In addition, some practical pointers & tips were presented as to how businesses should go about managing their GDPR compliance programme without GDPR becoming a burden. Following the event Ms de Mesquita commented that, “My aim was to get across the importance of the regulation, how it improves the protection of European data subjects’ rights while also highlighting what companies that process personal data must do to safeguard these rights.”
