Nordic Privacy Arena 2025

Nordic Privacy Arena 2025

Nordic Privacy Arena – September 29 and September 30.

This year, the Nordic Privacy Arena (NPA) is devoted to the Guardians of Privacy and Data Protection and this year’s theme is ”A Decade of Progress, A Future of Responsibility.”

Please find the complete program for NPA 2025 here.

The Guardians of Privacy are the DPOs, the data protection specialists, -managers, -coordinators, -lawyers and privacy officers along with the regulators such as Data Protection Authorities, EDPB, EDPS, data protection forums, and activists working daily to secure the basic human right of privacy.

Over the past decade, data protection has evolved from a niche regulatory concern to a global priority. The introduction of the GDPR in 2018 marked a turning point, setting a global standard for privacy rights, accountability, and enforcement. Since then, we have witnessed a growing regulatory landscape, the rise of AI governance, increased cybersecurity threats, and shifting public expectations about privacy.

As we celebrate 10 years since the establishment of the Nordic Privacy Arena as the ultimate forum for data protection and privacy in the Nordics, we also recognize that the journey is far from over and remains more relevant than ever. With emerging challenges such as AI-driven automated decision-making, biometric surveillance, cross-border data flows, and digital sovereignty, the responsibility to safeguard privacy is greater than ever.

We invite you to two full days of thought-provoking keynotes, fruitful and valuable discussions, exchange of experiences, and fun! Meet your peers and celebrate the 10th NPA at the Anniversary Party.
