Conference Day One - Tuesday 24th March 2026

3:10 PM Future-proof your Platform: Smart Compliance that Doubles as your Defence Strategy

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.
