Building Trust and Strengthening Accountability with the Enhanced PDPA

COVID-19 has led to an increasingly digitalised global economy which includes the meeting, incentive, convention, and exhibition (MICE) industry. As the pandemic brings people globally together onto a common virtual space, more data are being collected, generated and shared through online processes and digital tools. While organisations harness data for business insights, innovation and growth, the increased data activities also present a higher risk of data misuse and incidents.

Join us at this session to stay updated on how the enhanced PDPA supports businesses and enables better use of data to speed up recovery and innovate in the data-fuelled environment. You will also get to hear about IMDA's Data Protection Trustmark (DPTM) certification and how it can help strengthen consumer and regulator trust to enhance your competitive edge in the digital economy.

Building Trust and Strengthen Accountability with Data

Participants will get to understand more about data use and importance of data protection for the MICE industry.
