Selected IP/IT Topics in a Digital Environment
Webinar | 02.24.22, 6:00 AM CST - 8:00 AM CST
In Collaboration with the IBJ/IJE
Intellectual property and information technology law has a broad scope and raises numerous concerns for company lawyers. Furthermore, the question often arises whether traditional concepts can still be applied in a digital environment. Our Technology & IP team will address some of the questions raised in the day-to-day practice, such as:
- Online content: the use of a trademark on social media, negative online reviews or false claims, the unauthorized use of names and images of celebrities, the use of third-party content (hyperlinking, parody and mashups),
- Digital presence: domain names and cybersquatting, ransomware, collaborating with influencers, pitfalls in contracts with IT-providers or website builders,
- Digital outlook: implementation of the European copyright directives and IP issues of NFTs and the metaverse.
We will not discuss all legal aspects in detail but will provide pragmatic advice which can be used on a daily basis by company lawyers.
