Charity Technology Leaders Data Protection Roundtable
Join Smartdesc for a focused roundtable bringing charity IT leaders together to exchange experiences, explore shared challenges and deepen their approach to data protection.
At Smartdesc, we understand that data protection is a key component for non-profits to achieve their objectives while keeping sensitive personal information safe. We also recognise that having a team of full-time data protection professionals isn’t always possible or necessary.
This is a peer discussion rather than a sales presentation, designed to provide a trusted forum where charity IT leaders can openly discuss data protection and learn how others are tackling it.
Who is this is for:
- COOs, CIOs, CFOs, IT Directors, Operations Directors or equivalent Exec or C-Suite roles
- Nonprofit organisations who have some level of internal IT team – big or small
What you’ll take away:
- Shared learning on what similarly sized charities are doing in this area across the sector
- Practical advice and suggestions on how to improve data protection
- Alternative operating models and ways of working to improve data protection and GDPR.
- Discuss how the upcoming Data (Use and Access) Act 2025 might affect your organisation and hear how others are addressing it.
