Conference Day One - Tuesday 24th March 2026

In an era of fast-moving regulation and heightened scrutiny, regulatory adherence can no longer be treated as a back-office obligation. Executives must elevate regulatory alignment into a strategic enabler - making evolving rules work for the organisation while reinforcing trust with stakeholders. This requires constructive alignment internally across leadership teams and resilient, transparent relationships with regulators, industry bodies, and civil society. In this session, Kate Ross from Microsoft will discuss how senior leaders can position regulatory coherence as a driver of long-term resilience and global consistency.

• Embedding regulatory alignment as a board-level priority that informs business strategy
• Forging constructive internal coherence to ensure adherence supports growth and innovation
• Building trusted, long-term relationships with regulators and external stakeholders
• Creating globally consistent strategies that adapt to diverse regulatory environments

• Prioritising compliance risks and obligations to focus limited resources where they matter most
• Leveraging technology, automation, and external expertise to extend team capacity
• Embedding compliance responsibilities into wider business functions to reduce silos
• Building scalable frameworks that allow small teams to manage growing regulatory complexity

Europe's enforcement era has arrived. The European Commission has made clear that digital regulation enforcement is a top priority, with consumer protection rules including the DSA, Platform to Business Regulation and the landmark Digital Fairness Act creating unprecedented scrutiny of platform practices.

For in-house counsel, the challenge isn't just achieving compliance today - it's building an evidence base that protects you in tomorrow's enforcement investigations and actions. This session shows you how to comply with an eye to defence: ensuring that your documentation is in order alongside robust governance frameworks, and audit trails so that when regulators come knocking, you're not scrambling to reconstruct what you did and why.

As regulation tightens, the line between Trust & Safety and Compliance is becoming increasingly blurred. T&S teams’ risk being pulled into purely regulatory functions, while compliance leaders need to understand the operational realities of new regulatory requirements. This session explores how the two functions work in tandem to avoid duplication, preserve agility, and build a unified approach to safety and compliance that meets both legal obligations and user expectations.

• Clarifying roles and responsibilities between T&S and Compliance teams
• Aligning regulatory obligations with day-to-day Trust & Safety operations
• Avoiding duplication and inefficiency by building shared frameworks and governance models
• Ensuring user protection and safety remain central while meeting compliance requirements
