Copyright - Recent Developments & Lessons Learned

Introduction

The protection, and enforcement, of copyright is increasingly important for all creators and businesses with protectable content, as the sheer volume of that content, and the ways in which the content is consumed, continue to grow.

Rapid technological developments give rise to significant challenges for anyone looking to protect their content, however it is distributed and consumed.

Those challenges are potentially augmented in an environment of uncertainty as the intellectual property landscape continues to evolve in the aftermath of Brexit.

This virtual classroom seminar will provide an update on recent developments, key issues and emerging trends in the context of copyright law in England and Wales, including significant recent case law, as we continue to navigate the post-Brexit landscape, and grapple with the rapid advance of technology.
