2. Data privacy is one of the hottest topics in all industries globally. Understanding the critical
due diligence from a data privacy and sovereignty perspective (as opposed to security) will
help mitigate the risks as you embark on a cloud journey.
LeaseWeb and NetApp, together with CIO cordially invite you to join them for an
informative and interactive discussion, with Sheila FitzPatrick, Worldwide Legal Data
Governance & Data Privacy Counsel/Chief Privacy Officer at NetApp, and one of the world’s
leading experts in data privacy laws.
Sheila FitzPatrick will bring her experience and knowledge to explain the new EU General
Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), its impact globally, and the challenges companies
running businesses in the cloud can face.
In an intimate setting with a limited numbers of peers, we are interested in hearing your
viewpoint on these matters.
We would love to welcome you at Cobra Museum on November 17th.
Best Regards
Robert van der Meulen Marilijn Boumeester
