Firebrand GDPR Essentials

GDPR Essentials: Quick Wins, Tools & Compliance

As the May 25th deadline moves closer, it’s vital that your business is ready to comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

The regulation’s impact will be felt across your business, and almost every other business across the UK. From Marketing to HR and IT, GDPR will have major implications for every job role.

Fines for non-compliance will increase to as much as €20m or 4% of the previous year’s global annual turnover. Even if your business could withstand that, who would be held responsible, and how long could they remain employed?

Complying with GDPR is more than just avoiding massive fines. Smart businesses will find opportunities; your data is valuable and using it well could mean a competitive advantage as you improve your data protection processes.

There’s still time to prepare and protect your organisation.

Get ready for GDPR compliance in just one day

Firebrand One – GDPR Essentials: Quick Wins, Tools & Compliance is a comprehensive one-day event designed to bring you and your organisation up to speed on the regulation before the 25th May deadline hits.
