Lynx presented at the kick-off meeting of the PDP4E

María Poveda presented the Lynx project at the kick-off meeting of PDP4E, which counted with the presence of its project officer. PDP4E is an innovation action that will provide software and system engineers with methods and software tools to systematically apply data protection principles in the projects they carry out, so that the products they create comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), thus bringing the principles of Privacy and Data Protection by Design to practice.
