ASAE Webinar
Top IP, Privacy & Contractual Considerations for Virtual Events

January 28, 2021

GKG Law Trade & Associations Principal Katie Meyer was invited to present on IP, privacy and contractual considerations for virtual events as part of the American Society of Association Executives (ASAE) four-part Best Practices in Virtual Speaker Management Online Seminar Series. A full description of the event, which took place on January 28, can be found below.

Because of COVID, there has been a tremendous increase in virtual events. With this increase comes a new set of legal concerns. How do you ensure that the intellectual assets, such as digital handouts and slides, are properly protected? Do your speaker agreements address the issues and liabilities created by virtual events? What information provided by attendees during the meeting can be provided to others?

This program will feature a discussion on intellectual property rights related to virtual conferences, tips for creating speaker and attendee agreements, and ways to best address privacy concerns related to chat and on-camera discussions and icebreaker sessions. Additionally, it will address basic contractual issues, such as how to handle event cancellations and rescheduling with your speakers.
