Refreshments and snacks are served after the discussion for further networking opportunities as well as a chance to meet the speakers. All are welcome!
More than Just a Game is the only international academic-led conference on Interactive Entertainment and Intellectual Property Law. Since 2016 it has been part of the Fringe of the London Game festival.
Now in its third year, the conference is a well-established platform to exchange ideas, discuss challenges, explore solutions and map the legal issues that must be addressed for a more appropriate understanding, promotion and protection of interactive entertainment. The full programmes of the previous editions are available at: 2015-2016.
The main theme of the 2017 edition conference will be Virtual and Augmented Reality. To accommodate the increasing demand for the conference, the 2017 edition will be a two days event, housed at the Stationers’ Hall. For the first time the conference will be open to the media and the public in addition to the 120 invited delegates from academia, practice and industry. The conference is organised by Dr Gaetano Dimita and the Centre for Commercial Law Studies (CCLS), Queen Mary University of London.
Venue: Room 3.1 Lincoln's Inn Fields campus, CCLS (unless otherwise stated).
Time: 6pm-8pm (unless otherwise stated).
