Selected IP/IT Topics in a Digital Environment

Webinar | 02.24.22, 6:00 AM CST - 8:00 AM CST

In Collaboration with the IBJ/IJE

Intellectual property and information technology law has a broad scope and raises numerous concerns for company lawyers. Furthermore, the question often arises whether traditional concepts can still be applied in a digital environment. Our Technology & IP team will address some of the questions raised in the day-to-day practice, such as:

  • Online content: the use of a trademark on social media, negative online reviews or false claims, the unauthorized use of names and images of celebrities, the use of third-party content (hyperlinking, parody and mashups), 
  • Digital presence: domain names and cybersquatting, ransomware, collaborating with influencers, pitfalls in contracts with IT-providers or website builders, 
  • Digital outlook: implementation of the European copyright directives and IP issues of NFTs and the metaverse. 

We will not discuss all legal aspects in detail but will provide pragmatic advice which can be used on a daily basis by company lawyers.

Terminations, Stop Work Orders, and De-Scopes – The Latest Updates and Recovery Opportunities for USAID Contractors and Grant Recipients

In 2025, the U.S. Government’s policy statements and Executive Orders have had far-reaching impacts for government contractors and grant recipients. Although terminations, stop work orders, and de-scopes have affected private companies, non-profits, and universities doing business across multiple agencies, the U.S. Government’s policies relating to the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) has caused particular confusion and uncertainty relating to performance, compliance, and contractual procedure. Key questions have included the potential impacts of official and less formal communications from the U.S. Government, procedural issues arising from the move of certain functions to the U.S. Department of State, and the effect of various pending litigations. As businesses and organizations plan for 2026, the importance of preserving their rights and maximizing potential recovery opportunities remains paramount.
