“It was great to see so many people in the room advocating for privacy practices. I expected mostly technical experts, but there were also legal professionals and leadership present, which is so important.”
Elaine Burke
For Tech's Sake

Our vision is to promote a future where trust is the standard, privacy is universal, and data can be leveraged responsibly across all industries. Those organisations that lead the conversation will shape the future of how data is handled and be at the forefront of industry innovation.

Why is EODS a “No Selling” event?

We know everyone needs to make a living but we ask that no hard selling takes place at the event. As such, the organisers vet all sponsor speaking slots and panel discussion topics to ensure they benefit the whole community as well as the sponsors themselves. We believe attending the event, building relationships and understanding the space will lead to long-term commercial relationships. All sponsors will feature prominently at the event and can of course discuss their services in one-to-one engagements with interested parties.

How do you determine the placement of sponsors' logos?

Platinum and Gold sponsor logos receive preferential treatment on all logo-related benefits (top line, centred, or first; larger than others). This includes the opportunity to place your company logo on attendee badges and/or lanyards.

Can sponsors host a workshop during the event?

Sponsors can host workshops depending on their package and sponsorship options. As EODs is a “no selling” environment, we ask that sponsors who host workshops bring executive or founder-level speakers either directly or from their customers or clients. Topics for Platinum and Gold hosts will be agreed between the EODS organisers in advance.

What is a scholarship package for the EODs privacy bootcamp?

One of our goals is to raise the next generation of data privacy advocates. We run an annual Privacy Boot Camp Scholarship Program at the University of Oxford for a shortlisted number of students, competition winners and selected parties. We bring together renowned academics and industry leaders to lead the sessions and foster a growing community in the PETs space.

Are we allowed to advertise our services or products during the workshop/presentation?

EODS is a no-selling event. Sponsors can give brief overviews of their role and what they do but we ask they do not sell their services or products. We expect that your knowledge, engagement and networking at the event will drive commercial benefits for you and your organisations.

Can we choose the topic for the workshop we host?

Yes. However, topics will need to be agreed in advance with the EODS organisers and align with the goals of the EODS.

Will our speaker's profile be included in event promotions?

Yes. All speakers will be included in promotions and on the official website and social media channels. We will arrange promotions in the build-up to the event with sponsors.

Can we customise our sponsorship package?

Yes. We are open to discussing other sponsorship options with interested parties.

Will the event be live-streamed?

No. We want people to be engaged in the event and those who pay to attend get exclusive access to the information presented. We can provide video recordings of the selected talks after the event.
