Where next for copyright in Europe? Sunday, 13 June 2004, 11-18:00
Technical University Berlin, main building, Room H 2032
organized by
Ian Brown
Director, Foundation for Information Policy Research (FIPR), London
Copyright law has become one of the most important and controversial drivers of the Information Society. The Internet has made every user a publisher, but copyright rules governing their activities are often determined by opaque international bodies that decide rules with little public input.
Join us in Berlin to debate where copyright should be going to ensure that authors, musicians, film-makers and the public will all benefit. Engage wih leading international thinkers from across Europe and the United States. Meet colleagues who are working to make sure all members of society benefit from copyright.
Attendance is free thanks to sponsorship from the Open society Institute, but please send an e-mail to  [this address] to let us know you will be coming for planning purposes.
Topics:
Influencing the international agenda
Updating the Copyright Directive
Implementing the IPR Enforcement Directive
Copyright beyond the EU
Do we need a Digital Rights Directive?
