Loeb & Loeb LLP is pleased to announce that partner Barry Slotnick will be speaking at the upcoming Practising Law Institute Seminar titled "Understanding the Intellectual Property License 2014" on Copyright Licensing.
From seminar website:
Companies continue to turn to licensing because it offers valuable economic and strategic opportunities. Licensing can be used to gain access to intellectual property at a lower cost than developing or purchasing intellectual property assets, and as a way to generate new sources of revenue out of existing intellectual property assets. Virtually every business today must confront licensing issues, and therefore, a solid base of knowledge about licensing has never been more important for companies and their counsel. This introductory course will give you an overview of how to negotiate and draft effective license agreements, whether you are the licensor or licensee. Experts in licensing will discuss different kinds of licensing agreements, and the business and legal issues related to them.
What you will learn:
How licensing can generate new revenue
Key provisions and practical considerations in trademark licensing
Fundamentals of a copyright license
Important differences between patent and other technology licenses
Understanding software and open source licenses
Rights of publicity and entertainment licensing
Drafting considerations related to protection and enforcement of rights internationally
Addressing antitrust issues
Treatment of IP licenses under bankruptcy law
Hear from a litigator what happens when the agreement has to be enforced
