Panel | Supervising in Sync? Strategic Priorities and Cooperation Among European Data Protection Authorities

This high-level panel brings together representatives from the Irish, British, and German data protection authorities to discuss the current strategic priorities shaping enforcement across Europe. How do national approaches to GDPR enforcement differ—and where is alignment emerging? The panel will also explore the expanding role of DPAs in the context of new EU legislation such as the Digital Services Act, Data Act, and AI Act. Are structural changes needed to meet these new responsibilities? Finally, the discussion will address the effectiveness of cross-border cooperation mechanisms like the One-Stop-Shop and EDPB, and how data protection can adapt to remain both effective and innovation-friendly in a fast-evolving digital landscape.
