The European Commission’s announcement of its Digital Omnibus package proposal has set off one of the biggest privacy debates in years. On paper, it promises modernisation and simplification, but many are questioning what these potential changes could mean for the foundations of the GDPR. Is it an evolution or erosion of the gold standard that made it the global benchmark?

Join our expert panel for early reactions as they weigh up the pros and cons. They’ll challenge assumptions, discuss the details, and explore what matters most for organisations potentially facing another wave of regulatory change.

What we’ll discuss:

·      The biggest shifts proposed by the Digital Omnibus

·      Whether the EU AI Act is already out of date and what it means for AI projects

·      Does merging data laws simplify anything in practice?

·      Whether the GDPR can remain the global benchmark with rising pressure to ‘modernise’

The Digital Omnibus could redefine the direction of the GDPR and AI governance for years to come. Don’t miss this opportunity to join the debate and stay ahead of the potential changes. We’ll close with a live Q\&A, giving you the chance to ask questions and leave with a clearer view of what to monitor as the proposals move through the legislative process.

The secondary use of health data is becoming one of the biggest drivers of innovation across clinical research. But as AI technology advances and EU and UK regulations evolve, CROs and sponsors need to think ahead about how trial data might be used, or reused, in the future. 

Join session moderator Ben Seretny, COO at The DPO Centre, alongside Lawrence Carter, DPO and Life Sciences Sector Lead, and Pippa Scotcher, DPO, for a forward-looking discussion on how AI and diverging governance frameworks are likely to impact the future of secondary data use and informed consent in clinical trials. 

You’ll learn: 

*   How EU and UK regulatory reforms are reshaping secondary use of data 
*   The growing role of AI in expanding the value and risk of health data reuse 
*   What this means for informed consent and site-level secondary data use 
*   Practical steps CROs and sponsors can take to prepare for evolving governance and ethical requirements 

This session will close with an open Q\&A discussion, with practical insights on how to stay compliant, future-ready and confident as AI redefines the boundaries of research data.
