Bird & Bird Webinar: New Copyright Legislation in the EU – Towards a New Media and Tech Landscape?

The EU DSM Directive 2019/790 represents an ambitious and far-reaching harmonisation effort in the copyright field, with effects on the obligations of internet actors, the room allowed for unlicensed uses, and the principle of freedom of contract. Member States have time until 7 June 2021 to transpose the Directive into their own laws.

Join Bird & Bird lawyers and their invited expert speakers to explore the most relevant and complex questions relating to some of the Directive's key provisions.

We hope you are able to join us.
