The Sedona Conference Working Group 11 (WG11) Midyear Meeting 2020 is a virtual event organized by The Sedona Conference, a nonprofit research and educational institute dedicated to the advanced study of law and policy. This meeting focuses on data security and privacy liability, bringing together legal professionals, policymakers, and industry experts to discuss and develop best practices in these critical areas.

Key topics for this year's meeting include biometric privacy laws and the development of a model data breach notification law. Additionally, sessions will cover recent developments in privacy and data security litigation, key considerations in cyber insurance, and feature dialogues with global data protection authorities.

The event will be held online via Zoom on September 30 and October 1, 2020, from 12:00 PM to 4:15 PM EDT each day. Participants will have opportunities to engage with leading experts, including dialogue leaders such as Kate Baxter-Kauf from Lockridge Grindal Nauen PLLP, David Cohen from Orrick Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP, and Elissa Kim Doroff from AXA XL. The Sedona Conference will seek Continuing Legal Education (CLE) accreditation in accordance with individual jurisdiction requirements for virtual meetings.

This meeting is ideal for legal professionals, data protection officers, compliance officers, and others involved in data security and privacy. Attendees will gain valuable insights into emerging legal issues, network with peers, and contribute to the development of authoritative guidance in the field.
