Tech companies demonstrate their maturity curve of privacy and data protection compliance — designing compliance programs that meet complex and evolving regulatory demands at scale. This panel of DPOs will explore how some of the largest tech companies are embedding compliance into the core of their product development, creating frameworks that support growth while anticipating the future of digital compliance and governance. We will examine the shift from standalone privacy programs to more integrated, multi-domain compliance programs that span AI, online safety and digital markets regulation. Panelists will share insights on governance, lines of defense and building agile compliance teams, and how they impact the role of the DPO.
