IIR Law and Compliance

In the last 12 months, issues relating to digital rights management, piracy and peer-to-peer file sharing have occupied many column inches, not only in the legal press, but also in the national press. 

IBC Legal is therefore delighted to announce the 9th annual International Copyright Law conference be held on 8th-9th December 2009.

This conference will provide you with all the legal and practical updates relating to copyright developments in the UK, US and across Europe, bringing you right up to speed with everything you need to know in order to best advise your clients and colleagues in the face of rapidly changing laws and technology.

Your distinguished chairman for the day will be Professor Adrian Sterling who will lead delegates in interactive discussion surrounding the most important changes relating to:
- The impact of Pirate Bay on the law relating to online file-sharing: What's next?
- Understand all sides of the 'Google Books' settlement debate
- Collecting societies and the current challenges surrounding international licensing
- An update from WIPO, EC and the US Copyright Office
- Latest developments relating to the orphan works debate
- What's new in relation to performers' rights and sound recordings?

More details on the programme and speakers will be coming soon, but make sure the dates are in your diary so you don't miss out on the essential annual update on all the most important developments relating to copyright law.
