Big Tech dominates our headlines, and increasingly dominates the business landscape. The market power of the tech giants is felt in many sectors – finance, healthcare, leisure, and beyond – and is a fitting subject for this year’s SCL T2 zeitgeist session.
In this seminar two hot topics were covered. Speaker’s started with a practical introduction to the law of abuse of dominance – which places special responsibilities on companies with market power – and looked at how competition law can be used to maintain a level playing field in fast moving markets.
This session covered:
- Digital assets as an asset class
- NFT & use cases
- Growth areas and crossover into more mainstream practice:
- IP disputes
- Insolvency
- Software protocols
- Consumer rights
- NFT Drops, legal documentation and processes
- Corporate governance
- Metaverse licensing
