Audience Level: All

This is a group of video game and esports enthusiasts who happen to be lawyers. They met at PAX, GDC and other video game and lawyer conventions (yes, video game lawyer conventions are a thing) and have been speaking for years about legal topics near and dear to our digital pastime. The topics to be discussed if nobody's brave: influencer advertising; loot crates; IP law; corp stuff; the rise of AI, crypto, trademarks; but we'd love to answer YOUR questions and give out legal info on video game and law topics

Note: The speakers can't give specific legal advice; and aren't insured for that! Use hypotheticals, people!

Takeaway

First and foremost, we hope that attendees will find the discussion engaging and entertaining, a look inside the discussions video game lawyers have with their clients. But attendees will take away an appreciation of the myriad legal issues that arise when ideating, developing, or publishing games.

Intended Audience

Anyone interested in the games business!
