Prince Harry took a moment from the stage at the IAPP 2026 Global Summit to sit down with Joe Jones, the organization’s Director of Research.
The candid conversation revealed a surprisingly candid side to the Duke of Sussex.
When Jones posed the question, “What gives you hope?” Harry didn’t stop.
“Everyone in this room,” he responded, focusing attention on the privacy professionals, technology experts and policymakers gathered in Washington, DC.
He continued to express his gratitude and said, “I would like to say to everyone here, thank you for what you do.”
The Duke’s appearance on Tuesday took place jjust weeks after it was confirmed that he will not be joining his father in Washington, DC next month.
King Charles and Queen Camilla are planning a high-profile state visit to the United States, to celebrate 250 years of American independence.
