Can we ever escape never-ending assessments as a core activity of a privacy management program? How does Privacy Tech extend to AI governance? Does built-in know-how become the most crucial moat?

We are joined by Pádraig O’Leary, co-founder and CEO of TrustWorks, in a new installment of our Privacy Tech series (our sixth). Pádraig (Ph.D.) is a former academic in computer science.

TrustWorks works with Fortune 500 and high-growth clients, helping them discover what AI and data they’re really using, understand the context of regulations and implications, and embed governance into everyday operations.
