Next Tuesday 3 October from 9:00 to 10:30, the Official Spanish Chamber of Commerce in Belgium and Luxembourg will organise the conference “GDPR compliance for Latin American companies: difficulties and opportunities”, in collaboration with the Chamber’s partner firm Van Gompen Advocaten.

This conference will review the differences between the European GDPR and the local data protection requirements in Colombia, Mexico, Peru, Venezuela and Argentina.

Relevant topics for day-to-day business such as obligations for controllers, processing agreements with processors, privacy notices, data transfer and risk and vulnerability assessment will be discussed.

The speaker will be Laura Van Gompel, lawyer in Mexican and Belgian law, specialised in data protection and contracts. She started her data protection practice more than 10 years ago in Mexico and has extensive experience in GDPR audits.

The event will take place in Spanish at the Chamber’s premises (Rue Belliard 20, 1 – 1040 Brussels).
