Product Description
Product Description
Regardless of your practice area, your clients’ needs are constantly changing due to the rapid evolution of technology. Technology continues to disrupt at breakneck speed—outpacing existing laws and regulations. As a result, businesses face new challenges daily on all fronts.
Your clients may be developing novel products and services leveraging data. Employees working from home and on the road present unique challenges for employers. Data breaches are not a matter of if, but when; so, just how valuable are those cyber-risk policies you hear about? Household appliances, devices, and vehicles are becoming wirelessly inter-connected—expanding the ever-increasing ecosystem of “Internet of Things.” Marketing and advertising firms seeking to exploit these new technologies also face challenges and legal risks in navigating these unchartered waters. A client’s interest in IP protections may now focus on data, rather than a particular “product,” making it more difficult to assess the value of such assets and investments. And there are often regulators nearby, with an eye out for protecting consumers.
Meanwhile, your clients’ businesses and the legal profession itself require you to understand technology and the related jargon, as well as the relevant law. Lawyers now have an obligation to understand the legal issues arising from their client’s adoption of rapidly changing technology—and to practice law using such technology. Learn how IP and privacy issues relate to big data and data analytics, how all businesses engage in digital marketing, when and why high tech issues impact corporate transactions, how the virtual workspace is reshaping business and employment issues, how to help your client respond when there is an incident, and the pros and cons of data security or cyber-risk insurance products. This unique, new Symposium gives you the essential background to more skillfully handle technology-related matters—regardless of your practice focus.
