I wish I could go to this and look at it from a Free Software and Free Culture perspective, unfortunately it's a bit far for me. Also: shame on the term Intellectual Property. -------- Original Message -------- Subject: OUT-LAW Breakfast Seminar - Creative uses of IP - 20 May 2008 - Birmingham Date: Thu, 8 May 2008 10:49:03 +0100 From: [email protected] <[email protected]> Reply-To: [email protected] To: Tim <[email protected]> *OUT-LAW Breakfast Seminar - Creative uses of IP 20 May 2008 - Birmingham* Dear , We will shortly be finalising our numbers for our OUT-LAW Breakfast Seminar: Creative uses of IP - and how to stop them. The event will take place on Tuesday 20 May 2008 in Birmingham. The outline of the seminar is as follows: From website-scraping to user-generated content, a threat to one company's intellectual property is an opportunity to another. Exploring the strengths and weaknesses of IP laws, we ask: how should the rights-holder keep control in a Web 2.0 market? Our lawyers present both sides of the story: * Permitted uses of content and brands * Controlling that use and protecting value * Parody marketing: using a proposed new law The seminar is free. Registration, breakfast and networking from 8am; and the talk begins 8.30am and end at 9.30am. The event will be held in our office at Colmore Circus.
