Overview

Why you should attend

Virtually every American business has turned to technology to improve efficiency and deliver new, Internet-based services or information.  The fastest growing companies in our troubled economy are the technology innovators.  Every lawyer in this rapidly changing economy must understand the legal issues raised by technology.  However, when technological changes outpace the law, lawyers are forced to apply decades old laws to ideas and inventions that weren’t even conceivable when such laws were enacted.  Practitioners must understand and appreciate the intersection of these two seemingly divergent forces in order to advise clients on these issues.

This is a program for those who are called upon to lead their clients through the legal and practical minefields of cutting-edge technology issues.  It will give you the information necessary to keep up with the rapidly evolving landscape.
