Seminar presented by the UIA and the UIA-India Chapter
The rapid rise of digital economy has been manifested through the growth of e-commerce and the consequent onset of Big Data, machine learning, block chain, cryptocurrency, and the internet of things.
This poses challenges across all legal spheres from human rights, contract law, anti-trust, intellectual property as well as the basic frame work of the legal profession and how it delivers services to clients.
The broad topics for discussion would be:
• Digital Governance advantages and pitfalls
• The Online World: data privacy, who owns your information and what they can do with it?
• Legal aspects and regulatory risks of artificial intelligence and automation
• Protecting your intellectual property in other jurisdictions
• Choice of law and jurisdiction in cross border IT Contracts
• Data as Intellectual Property
• Competition law aspects of 'Big Data'
• Crypto currency: Legal Challenges
