Life Science Series: Research, Develop, Launch: Keeping Pace with Evolving Global Privacy Obligations

Privacy compliance in life sciences isn't just a legal question; it's an operational one. As data moves from research to development to commercial launch, internal teams must keep policies, security controls, and day-to-day practices aligned with changing global requirements. This session focuses on how to build an internal privacy and security program that keeps your organization compliant at every stage, without slowing down the work.

Key takeaways:

• Building a privacy program that scales. Learn how to structure internal policies, roles, and responsibilities so privacy and security obligations are clearly owned across business teams.

• Aligning security controls with privacy requirements. Understand the core safeguards regulators expect, such as access controls, data mapping, retention schedules, and incident response, and how to apply them consistently across global operations.

• Keeping compliance current as rules change. See practical ways to monitor new requirements, train employees, manage vendor risk, and update internal processes before gaps become problems.
