Access available presentations by clicking the button below.</p> <p><a class="button-lg--fancy" href="https://iapp.org/conference/past-conferences/CPS24/">See breakout session presentations</a></p> <p class="page-text-med">The keynote stage was packed at this year's event. Philippe Dufresne gave an address recalling his first two years as privacy commissioner, as well as a forecast of future privacy trends in Canada. Professor Woodrow Hartzog delivered this year's Ian Kerr Memorial Lecture, focusing on privacy law's influence on the design and deployment of artificial intelligence technologies.</p> <p class="page-text-med">Two keynote panels discussed artificial intelligence from different angles. One explored the concept of digital governance and how companies must look at privacy, security, and AI along with broader regulations. The second panel spotlighted Canada's three AI institutes and how their proactivity led the country to create the first AI strategy in 2017.</p> <p class="page-text-med">Finally, the Commissioner's Game Show returned with a new format: Never Have I Ever. The popular party game was transformed as Kris Klein spoke with commissioners Philippe Dufresne, Michael Harvey, Patricia Kosseim and Tricia Ralph about their privacy secrets.</p> <p class="page-text-med">As always, Symposium was not just about top-notch educational sessions. Attendees met and connected at returning favorites like the welcome reception and Privacy Soirée.

AI governance. Public sector privacy program operations. Third-party vendor management. Global and provincial regulatory developments. The intersection of privacy and social justice. Children's online privacy. Cybersecurity and incident response. Employee and workplace privacy. Cross-border data transfers. Data breach prevention and response. Emerging privacy technology and the metaverse. 2024 conference recap Symposium 2024 voiced Canada's privacy concerns The IAPP Canada Privacy Symposium 2024 agenda delivered key insights into topics like Quebec's Law 25, managing health privacy across Canada, Indigenous-specific privacy tools, protecting children's privacy, FemTech and women's data, managing hospital cyberattacks, the intersection of privacy and artificial intelligence, and many more. Access available presentations by clicking the button below. See breakout session presentations The keynote stage was packed at this year's event. Philippe Dufresne gave an address recalling his first two years as privacy commissioner, as well as a forecast of future privacy trends in Canada. Professor Woodrow Hartzog delivered this year's Ian Kerr Memorial Lecture, focusing on privacy law's influence on the design and deployment of artificial intelligence technologies. Two keynote panels discussed artificial intelligence from different angles. One explored the concept of digital governance and how companies must look at privacy, security, and AI along with broader regulations. The second panel spotlighted Canada's three AI institutes and how their proactivity led the country to create the first AI strategy in 2017. Finally, the Commissioner's Game Show returned with a new format: Never Have I Ever. The popular party game was transformed as Kris Klein spoke with commissioners Philippe Dufresne, Michael Harvey, Patricia Kosseim and Tricia Ralph about their privacy secrets. As always, Symposium was not just about top-notch educational sessions. Attendees met and connected at returning favorites like the welcome reception and Privacy Soirée. The agenda also featured industry meetups, the Mentor Mingle, the First-Time Attendee Breakfast, the AI Governance Breakfast, the Public Sector Lunch, and the Women Leading Privacy Section Lunch.
