Leading up the the introduction of the GDPR in May 2018, the founders of TechGDPR recognized the challenges of this new regulation for technology companies and startups early on. In particular for deep tech (blockchain, decentralized technology, artificial intelligence and internet of things) the Regulation was clearly not built with these technologies in mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Set out with the mission to support tech companies with building more privacy friendly products, navigate GDPR compliance and be a strong business partner, TechGDPR became a trusted compliance partner for technology companies world wide. With more than 5 years of existence it has provided diverse types of support to many organizations, from small technology startups, mid-size social businesses and the innovation and research departments of international corporations and institutions. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\"><div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-rounded\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"602\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.techgdpr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/TechGDPR_Team2.jpg\" alt=\"TechGDPR Team\" class=\"wp-image-4893\" style=\"width:356px;height:237px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.techgdpr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/TechGDPR_Team2.jpg 900w, https:\/\/staging.techgdpr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/TechGDPR_Team2-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/staging.techgdpr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/TechGDPR_Team2-768x514.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"pt-6 pb-8 lg:pt-8 lg:pb-12\">\n\n  <svg class=\"hidden lg:block w-full\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 1180.039 1\">\n  <line id=\"Line_30\" data-name=\"Line 30\" x2=\"1180.039\" transform=\"translate(0 0.5)\" fill=\"none\" stroke=\"#707070\" stroke-width=\"1\" stroke-dasharray=\"10 20\"\/>\n<\/svg>\n<svg class=\"lg:hidden w-full\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 611.039 1\">\n  <line id=\"Line_30\" data-name=\"Line 30\" x2=\"611.039\" transform=\"translate(0 0.5)\" fill=\"none\" stroke=\"#707070\" stroke-width=\"1\" stroke-dasharray=\"10 20\"\/>\n<\/svg>\n\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">TechGDPR as Experts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:100%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-4 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"3917\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.techgdpr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/TNW-Hard-Fork-Summit-Day-2-Summit-Stage-Copyright-Janus-van-den-Eijnden-119-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3917\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.techgdpr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/TNW-Hard-Fork-Summit-Day-2-Summit-Stage-Copyright-Janus-van-den-Eijnden-119-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/staging.techgdpr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/TNW-Hard-Fork-Summit-Day-2-Summit-Stage-Copyright-Janus-van-den-Eijnden-119-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/staging.techgdpr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/TNW-Hard-Fork-Summit-Day-2-Summit-Stage-Copyright-Janus-van-den-Eijnden-119-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.techgdpr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/TNW-Hard-Fork-Summit-Day-2-Summit-Stage-Copyright-Janus-van-den-Eijnden-119-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/staging.techgdpr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/TNW-Hard-Fork-Summit-Day-2-Summit-Stage-Copyright-Janus-van-den-Eijnden-119.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Silvan Jongerius with Marina Kaljurand MEP at TNW Hard Fork &#8211;
