Round Table on Creating Innovation – Friendly Data Protection Regulations

NLSIU in collaboration with the U.S. Consulate is organising a round table on Creating Innovation-Friendly Data Protection Regulations at NLSIU.

Many countries are pursuing data protection regulations—including some modelled after the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Yet not all data protection laws encourage innovation. Many laws lock up data that could otherwise be used for research, or create other obstacles to greater data collection and use. How should countries design data protection laws to encourage innovation? This round table aims to deliberate on the above aspects.

One of the main speakers will be Mr. Daniel David Castro, Vice President, Information Technology and Innovation Foundation (ITIF) and the Director of ITIF’s Center for Data Innovation. He is visiting Bengaluru as part of India- US public diplomacy engagement. Mr. Castro writes and speaks on a variety of issues related to information technology and internet policy, including open data, privacy, security, intellectual property, Internet governance, e-government. His current work on open data includes, helping craft the OPEN Government Data Act), assessing open data policies globally, and identifying data blocking challenges in certain sectors. He has also written reports about the problem of data localization, the benefits of cross-border data flows, and opportunities to improve law enforcement access to data across borders. Castro previously worked as an IT analyst at the Government Accountability Office (GAO) where he audited IT security and management controls at various government agencies.

The round table conference will be held on 5th November at Allen and Overy Conference Hall, NLSIU, from 5 pm.

‘Legal Eduation in Flux. The NLS Experience: Legal Education & What Comes Next’, a panel discussion with Prof. Sudhir Krishnaswamy and others

EBC has recently published a new book, An idea of a Law school – Ideas from the Law school edited by NR Madhava Menon, Murali Nellakantan, Sumeet Malik) on the NLSIU.

The panel discussion will focus on ideas raised in the book. The discussion will explore the state of the legal profession and the state of legal academia in India. It will explore how NLSIU (and the NLU model of legal education generally) has had an impact on both these fields. The term legal profession includes everyone with a legal training using it in any way possible whether in courts and tribunals or outside them, and likewise for legal academia, both teaching and research. The idea is to leave the audience with a more nuanced understanding of what law persons do and how the NLU model furthers that.
