AmCham Philippines

AmCham came to life in 1902 as the Manila Coffee Round Table and later as Manila Merchants Association. Incorporated in 1920, it has since then recognized and reconfirmed the commitment of American business to the development and welfare of the Philippines and the Filipino people.

This is a commitment of long-standing, as its mission statement declares:

The Chamber exists to serve the interests of U.S. businesses through the participation of members in promoting their long-term objectives while contributing to the civic and economic development of the Philippines.”

Event Details

The Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) committee of the Chamber is holding a session entitiled: "Protecting Data Privacy in an AI-driven Era" on 22 July from 10:00 - 11:30 AM with Commissioner Raymund Liboro of the National Privacy Commission.

With the proliferation and enhancement of AI, numerous questions on data privacy and protection have been raised. Technology in the past has been massively involved and even more today-- data and other sources of information are in the state of more risks, therefore. It is extremely important that we take extra steps to mitigate cybercrimes and other violations of data protection and data privacy alongside technological development. In an AI-driven era, this facet adds to the list of possible cyber attacks. Cybercrime strikes from behind, in a blink of an eye, and in a click of a finger.

Speaker

Raymund Enriquez Liboro

Privacy Commissioner at National Privacy Commission

Having been appointed as the country’s first Privacy Commissioner in 2016, he fast tracked data protection policy development in the country with the issuance of the Data Privacy Act’s Implementing Rules and significant policy circulars within the first year of NPC’s establishment – effectively working for the country’s data privacy and protection rules to be part with global data protection regulations.

In 2018, he put the country on the world stage by earning the Philippines a voting seat on the exclusive 5-member executive committee of the International Conference of Data Protection and Privacy Commissioner or the ICDPPC. The ICDPPC later renamed the Global Privacy Assembly is the worldwide body on data privacy composed of 134 member-jurisdictions. The Philippines’ earned the distinction of becoming the first Asian country to be elected to the prestigious body.

In 2019, he chaired the first ASEAN Data Protection and Privacy Forum and became the host-chair of the Asia Pacific Privacy Authorities Forum or the APPA.

In April 2020, this year, Commissioner Liboro was chosen to lead, and Chair the Global Privacy Assembly’s COVID-19 Task Force intended to create a venue for collaboration among jurisdictions and organizations and address the emerging privacy issues posed by the spread of the COVID-19 virus worldwide. This year, he continues his work as Chair of the new Working Group.

Recently, Privacy Commissioner Liboro attended the Harvard Kennedy School Executive Education Program for Digital Transformation.
