Machine Translation for Multilingual eDiscovery and Content Intelligence
​
eDiscovery is a multilingual challenge. Data volumes, and the velocity needed to translate content, are both increasing. At the same time, data privacy concerns and compliance requirements are driving tighter data regulatory needs as well as defining how and where multilingual data can be processed.
​
In this session, SDL will present how Machine Translation (MT) has become a critical technology to assist eDiscovery professionals in rapidly processing large volumes of multilingual information. The session will also cover some of the key questions that legal firms should be asking about the capabilities of MT and how it can be used to transform eDiscovery and Content Intelligence operations.

How GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) Brings Obligations As Well As Opportunities?
​
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) took effect in May 2018, yet businesses remain largely unprepared.

Panelists will aim to cover:
​
-
GDPR: What is It and How Does it Impact My Business?
-
Who is affected? Some definitions
-
How does the GDPR help reduce costs?
-
Main obligations
-
Consequences of non-compliance
-
How Ongoing Staff Awareness Can Support Compliance
