Hi Noreen—safe travels! I took notes for Tuesday’s meeting. I’m currently on a ski trip and haven’t finalized the minutes yet. The only major action item was a vote to send the SDA to leadership. -J --- Justin Byrd (He, Him) PARTNER / PROJECT-LEAD E: justin@machi-systems.com<mailto:justin@machi-systems.com> P: 570-820-2060 M: Book a call with me!<https://meetings.machi-systems.com/justin> Machi-Systems, LLC.

How can Kantara and the collective efforts of the workgroups make a difference? Yes, we need a leadership response to our Subject Delegation of Authority (SDA) or the PCQ (Purpose Consent Query) document, recently submitted. We cannot mark time, we need to expand our vision, get creative and package solutions for these communities.Take a few minutes and read the US Heroes article below.
