The future of intellectual property - Creativity and innovation in the
digital era

European conference

conference organised by the Goethe Institut in
Brussels
.

April 23rd–24th, 2009

Committee of the Regions
Brussels


FREE REGISTRATION before 16 April 2009.

The era of digital networks has given rise to new problems in the area of
intellectual property. They include the question of how best to deal with
the massive numbers of downloads of film, music and software via
peer-to-peer file sharing. They also open up copyright issues arising out of
the digitalisation of entire public libraries.

The issues affect many different interest groups, ranging from large film
and music industry corporations to individual authors and artists trying to
make a living from their work, as well as teenagers who risk being
prosecuted after posting copyright-protected material on YouTube.

At the same time, digitalisation offers totally new opportunities for the
worldwide exchange of knowledge. It facilitates a new kind of creativity
with music and films that in the past have only been passively consumed.
And it opens up opportunities for innovative business models like flat rate
all-you-can-eat subscriptions or advertising-financed music services.

The conference the future of intellectual property will address a range of
issues that are raised by this exciting policy area. Above all: How can the
concept of intellectual property be adapted to the realities of the digital
era, and at the same time not become outdated and inefficient?

Partners
The conference contributes to the European Year of Creativity and
Innovation 2009
. It is realised with
support from the European Commission’s *Europe for Citizens* programme.
