• November 6-7, 2003, at Carnegie Mellon
• Hosted by the Data Privacy Lab of Carnegie Mellon SCS ISRI
• Goal is to bring together world-class computer science researchers, who are working on emerging technologies that are facing privacy concerns, and leading privacy advocates, who are voicing privacy concerns about these emerging technologies, to discuss issues and examine traditional and innovative solutions (such as privacy technology).

• Tentative: December 2003, Senate Office Building, DC
• Hosted by the Data Privacy Lab SCS ISRI
• Goal is to have computer science researchers and privacy advocates discuss emerging technologies and privacy issues with congressional staff. Traditional and innovative solutions (such as privacy technology) will be examined.
