The Knowledge Congress Has Scheduled a Live Webcast on Video Game Law for Attorneys: A 2010 Update

NY, NY, December 08, 2009 --(PR.com)-- The rise of video games as a powerful multi-billion dollar mainstream entertainment medium has led to a huge uptick in legal clashes for game publishers and attorneys. In addition to the murky merger of IP law and digital entertainment, there have been many squabbles over trademark infringement and uncertainty of content ownership when the product leaps beyond the digital realm. In fact, there have been criminal enforcement cases when people have stolen “virtual property” from each other on fantasy game sites. One thing is for certain, things are going to continue to heat up with respect to video games and the law – you will definitely need to be in the know to properly advise your clients.

The Knowledge Group is presenting a distinguished panel of government officials, professionals, and experts to discuss the Video Game Law and to provide updates. The panelists will present their views and reflections on the said topic in a two-hour Live Webcast.

Sean F. Kane, Esq., Attorney Consultant, Kane & Associates LLC

Sean Bersell, Vice President, Public Affairs, Entertainment Merchants Association

Russell G. Weiss, Partner, Morrison Foerster
