On 27 May 2015, Alexander Schnider speaks at the “CG Meet” event organized by the “Computer Graphics Association” (Interessengemeinschaft Computergrafik). His topic is “Gaming Law meets Real Life – more often than one would imagine! “:
In economic terms, computer- and video games have already outrun Hollywood blockbuster movies some time ago. It is the computer and video gaming industry where many uncharted legal questions relating to IP and IT come together. In this field, the gaming industry now is equally setting the pace: it boldly goes where no lawyer has gone before. GEISTWERT partner Alexander Schnider will not only elaborate on industry-specific topics by way of pertinent case law focusing on graphics, sound and character design, but will establish a fascinating interactive link between gaming law and “real life” issues – such as “real life” advertising.
