Increasingly the population is turning to online and digital methods to consume media. This has led to a proliferation of ways in which intellectual property rights can be abused, which is particularly demonstrated by the increase in illegal download websites and peer to peer software. However, the entertainment industry has begun to fight back, with Hollywood winning a High Court case against BT forcing them to block the website Newzbin2. This case is likely to be followed by the music industry as they plan to take on the website Pirate Bay. With this emerging case law it is essential that you keep up to date with the competing issues being fought out in the courts, as well as understanding the complexities of new online business models. Butterworths’ IP and Media in the Digital Age conference will provide a comprehensive analysis of new approaches to protecting intellectual property rights. Join our expert speaker panel to discuss the following critical issues: • Understand the implications of Hollywood’s High Court win requiring BT to block the website Newzbin2 • Discuss what ‘communication to the public’ means in today’s digital environment • Explore the regulatory issues surrounding the advent of “Connected TV” • Debate whether new online business models will kill off the traditional entertainment industry • Hear the latest on cross border licensing initiatives in Europe To download the full agenda or to register, please visit: http://www.conferencesandtraining.co.uk/IP-Media.

Corporate Governance and Business Conference (CGBC) 19th & 20th July 2012 www.abrmr.com Overview of the Conference The recent financial crisis has created an impression, rightly or wrongly, of a wholesale failure in corporate governance. Considerable debate has ensued and various practitioners, policy makers and theorists have endeavoured to discover whether this is symptomatic of broader problems or the result of inadequacies in the regulation structure of the financial system. All who wrestle with this issue are aware of the need to encourage high standards of corporate governance without endangering entrepreneurialism, innovation and wealth creation. This whole issue has thrown into sharp relief the dialogue (or lack of it) between boards and shareholders. There is clearly no room for complacency in the areas of strategy and value-creation. Companies worldwide are now suffering a whole raft of problems many of which stem from liquidity and solvency in the global banking system. Increasingly the issue of Corporate Governance is one that warrants attention. From the American Bar Association’s Model Business Corporation Act to the Turnbull Guidance (2005) considerable momentum has been building, a momentum added to considerably by the Enron debacle. The conference seeks to elucidate a wealth of issues related not just to Corporate Governance, but also business management and general business ethics. Contributions should therefore be of interest to scholars, practitioners and researchers in management in both developed and developing countries targeting a worldwide readership. Subject Coverage Examples of topics appropriate to the Conference may include: · Effective boardroom performance and board evaluation · Leadership training and education · Transparency in government procurement/operations · Executive leadership · Market Microstructure · Legal safeguards and their role in Corporate Governance · Reforming corporate reporting · The interplay between the G4 and trade round implementation issues · Reporting structures in business · How trade facilitation is conceptualized and made operational in different emerging markets · The role of the Special Safeguard Mechanism (SSM) · Accounting Disclosure Practices · Financial Reporting · The implementation of the "comply or explain" principle · The role of business in society · The incentives required to encourage more socially- and environmentally-responsible corporate action · The role and contribution of external (non-executive) directors · Corporate accountability in a media age · Issues of Intellectual property rights · Redefinitions and reassessments of corporate governance models · Regulation and competition · Role of International Law in business · The role and impact of local and international regulatory bodies and regimes on corporate behaviour. · Corporate Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility · Risk Management · Earnings Quality · Structural readjustment · The linkage between international trade and overseas aid · Business ethics and legal issues · Business environment · Business policies, strategies, and performance · Business and retail research · Business security and privacy issues Please note that this list is only indicative of possible topic areas that contributors may wish to consider while they develop their papers for the conference. Conference Objectives · To elucidate an issue that is becoming ever more important as global economies become intertwined. · To learn more of the key concepts and frameworks from all disciplines regarding wide range of contemporary issues in business and management. · To explore how governance issues are raised, challenged and resolved. · To consider the pedagogy for teaching the issue of business & management, including recommendations about topics, syllabi and course materials. · Keep abreast of developing trends in the field of corporate governance · To meet and network with colleagues in one of America’s most cultured cities.

Freedom of religion in the West is often defined as freedom from State intervention in religion – “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof” says the First Amendment of the US Constitution. This has never been the case in many jurisdictions in Asia – religions and religious laws often count on the support and the regulations or at the very least the recognition of the State. Law and religion are often linked in Asia which makes Asia very different from the Western model. Yet Asian jurisdictions most often also have to deal with religious pluralism and claims of neutrality and secularity of the State and freedom of religion. How Asian jurisdictions reconcile these concepts may prove useful in our world today where States everywhere are challenged by religious pluralism. This workshop looks at how the law deals with religious pluralism in Asia. Is there a place for legal pluralism in the law – i.e. does the state apply different laws to different people depending on their religious affiliation (as is the case in Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia etc.) and how does this relate to the nature of the state (secular or not). What are the justifications for legal pluralism in state law and in religious law? Furthermore, how does state law deal with religious group – does it treat all religions equally, does it forbid some religions, does it facilitate/regulate/control religious activities? Are there spheres of religious law beyond the reach of the state – for example ecclesiastical courts of the Churches which exist without support or recognition by the state, or other informal religious laws that is widely followed without being sanctioned by the state or even against the state’s prohibition of such practices (unregistered Muslim marriages in Indonesia). - Law Mon, 26 Sep 2011 00:00:00 +0100 http://www.worldconferencecalendar.com/component/option,com_conference/page,show_ad/catid,8/adid,1988/Itemid,0/ The conference aims to address some of the legal, political and ethical challenges posed by transnational migration that so far have received limited attention in the theoretical literature on the subject. Legal and political theorists—in particular, those working in the so-called Anglo-American tradition—have been slow to give migration its due attention. Hence, a number of pressing issues, such as the rights of undocumented migrants, responsibility for refugee populations, and “brain drain” remain under-researched from a normative perspective. The conference aims to fill this gap in the literature and to provide a forum for sustained, interdisciplinary analysis by leading scholars and emerging researchers in the fields of law, social and political theory, and philosophy. The papers address issues which fall into two broad categories: 1) Entry and Exit; 2) Statelessness, Citizenship, and Naturalization. - Law Mon, 26 Sep 2011 00:00:00 +0100 http://www.worldconferencecalendar.com/component/option,com_conference/page,show_ad/catid,8/adid,1872/Itemid,0/ Why you should attend: The majority of medical devices being placed on the US market are cleared through the Premarket Notification or 510(k) process.
