The challenges of the fourth industrial revolution and post-COVID-19 require new, innovative and digital regulatory tools and oversight. One such tool, the regulatory sandbox concept, has been gaining traction among data protection authorities, other regulators and policymakers from Asia to Europe. This panel examines different approaches to the regulatory sandbox and participants in the Singapore PDPC Policy Prototyping process as well as the UK ICO’s regulatory sandbox program details their experiences and the benefits of participating in the sandbox. A regulator from the PDPC discusses the benefits of administering such a program and how organizations can get involved in such initiatives in the future.
