Ann Cavoukian, PhD.
Ann Cavoukian is well known for her Privacy by Design initiative. She was in San Francisco to speak at Web 2.0 Summit, held concurrently with IIW. The Sunday before these events (October 16th), we arranged a dinner with the Startup Circle companies who had representatives in town. The conversation was wide-ranging and those present had a chance to share how they were building privacy by design into their core business and technical architectures. We also discussed the challenges in the ecosystem and how Commissioner Cavoukian would support privacy by design initiatives.
