#KudosHealthDay -Getting Patient Groups Ready for GDPR
This is a free invite only event for patient groups, please contact: vbalk@kudoshealthresearch.com if you want to be included.
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is the most significant change to data protection in the UK and EU since 1995. Designed for the digital age, with strengthened individual rights and greater business accountability, it will impact organisations of all sizes processing personal data.
The new regulation will be enforced in all EU Member States from May 2018 meaning that compliance must be a top priority for UK-based organisations. It’s vital that patient organisations are ready to meet the new obligations and responsibilities that the GDPR will bring, especially in light of decline in public trust if data protection responsibilities not met as well as the more robust enforcement regime under the GDPR.
Our GDPR expert speaker will talk about the impact of GDPR and how organisations need to prepare for this important change of data protection legislation.
She will offer advice and tips on best GDPR practice. Her presentation will take around 60 minutes followed by a Q&A session of around 30 minutes.
Volker Balk, Head of Kudos Health will advice on what to do next and where to find relevant information for patient groups to achieve compliance.
Findacure will provide an update on their important work. Findacure is a UK charity that builds the rare diseases community to drive research and develop treatments.
The workshop is hosted by Kudos Health and free to attend. This event is to support and empower patient advocacy and patient groups.
Light refreshments will be provided and the building has disability-friendly access. The closest station is Stratford which also has disability friendly access.
