The General Incorporated Association MyDataJapan (headquartered in Minato-ku, Tokyo; President: Natsuhiko Sazumura) will host 'MyData Japan 2026,' Japan's largest conference dedicated to exploring sustainable and ethical approaches to data utilization centered on individuals, on Wednesday, July 29, 2026.
MyData Japan 2026
The context surrounding MyData is rapidly evolving, with amendments to Japan's Personal Information Protection Act, the rise of AI agents, and in Europe, comprehensive regulatory reviews such as the 'Digital Omnibus Bill' that reevaluate consumer and data-related regulations.
This year's theme is 'Revisiting MyData.' In 2026, we deliberately pause to reflect.
Having accumulated practical experience, we now see contradictions, limitations, and new possibilities more clearly than ever. This conference will re-examine the ideals and realities of MyData, deepening discussions with diverse stakeholders toward the next decade.
