A Warm Welcome Awaits you

It is with great pleasure and anticipation that my colleague, Ventislav Karadjov, Chairman of the Bulgarian Data Protection Commission, and I will host you for the 2018 International Conference of Data Protection and Privacy Commissioners in Brussels!

The responsibility to deliver this well-established, high-level annual meeting this year is an honour for both of our institutions and comes with a few novelties. For instance, it is the first time in the conference’s almost 40 year history that a European Union (EU) institution has been selected to host it.
