I founded Data Protection 4 Business to help and support today’s technology driven businesses with pragmatic compliance consultancy. We engage with clients directly, as part of their Executive or Programme team to assess compliance needs and implement practical solutions.

We specialise in the compliance aspects of technology use within the business, focusing on higher risk areas such as Digital Marketing, Business Automation, Artificial Intelligence and Data Security. Often our work is focused on technology transformation, where we partner with Point Group to design and deliver solutions in the Wealth Management sector.

Our podcast GDPRNow! covers a range of practical compliance topics for businesses such as Privacy Tech, Artificial Intelligence, Information Security and Privacy Regulations. Listen here https://gdprnow.fireside.fm
