The workshop is part of the ECLIP project, a research project funded by the
European Commissions’ ESPRIT programme. ECLIP seeks to set up a platform on
the legal issues of electronic commerce and to this end gathers five
European research centres specialised in information and technology law. The
workshop will be held in English which is the ECLIP projects’ working
language.
The Workshop addresses lawyers, legal experts working for enterprises,
associations or public authorities, as well as RTD projects interested in
intellectual property rights in the electronic field. The fee for attending
the workshop is 350,00 DM (or 175,00 DM for RTD projects under ESPRIT). As
the attendance is limited to around 50 persons, an early registration would
be advisable. As well, early bookings will be rewarded with a reduction of
DM 25,00.
