Privacy State of the Union [Live in DC! with Kelley Drye, Ketch, Red Clover Advisors, & WISP]
Where privacy leaders and regulators meet to kick off the year ahead
Hosted by Kelley Drye, Ketch, Red Clover Advisors, & WISP
Kick off 2026 with a clear, grounded look at where privacy is headed, and what it means for the teams actually doing the work. Held during National Data Privacy Week, this intimate, one-day, in-person forum in Washington, DC brings together regulators, in-house counsel, and industry luminaries for candid, practical conversations on the issues shaping privacy programs right now.
Designed as an East Coast complement to the October 2025 U.S. Privacy Summit, this forum prioritizes dialogue over decks and real-world insight over theory. You’ll hear directly from state enforcers and the FTC, engage in open discussion, and connect with peers navigating the same regulatory and operational pressures.
From regulator fireside chats to practitioner panels, join us to hear meaningful dialogue on:
Kids’ privacy and age verification
Health data and sensitive information
Adtech and targeted advertising
State AG enforcement priorities
FTC enforcement and policy priorities
Federal and state policy outlook for 2026
Day At-A-Glance
9-10am: Arrivals + light breakfast
10am-5pm: Program
5-6pm: Cocktail reception
Confirmed speakers include:
Chris Mufarrige, FTC Director, Bureau of Consumer Protection
Michael Macko, Head of Enforcement, CPPA
John Eakins, Delaware Deputy Attorney General
