MER 2021: Sedona Track Sessions was a series of specialized sessions held during the MER Conference in May 2021, organized by The Sedona Conference, a nonprofit institute dedicated to advancing law and policy in areas such as data security and privacy law. These sessions aimed to provide in-depth discussions on critical topics in information governance and legal technology.
Key sessions included "The Annual MER Conference 'Can't-Be-Missed' Case Law Update," which reviewed significant court decisions affecting information governance, and "So, Who’s Keeping Track of Our Data Privacy & Security Compliance? Navigating the IG of PII," focusing on the impact of privacy and data security laws on records management and information governance. Other notable sessions addressed issues like cross-border data transfers post-Schrems II and the challenges of managing data accumulated during the pandemic.
The event featured esteemed speakers such as U.S. Magistrate Judge Elizabeth Stafford and Ken Withers, Deputy Executive Director of The Sedona Conference, offering attendees valuable insights into evolving legal landscapes. Participants had opportunities for networking and engaging discussions on pressing issues in the field.
Professionals involved in information governance, legal compliance, and data privacy would find these sessions particularly beneficial for staying informed about recent developments and best practices in managing legal and technological challenges.
