On Wednesday 16th, Sylvie Fodor for CEPIC will participate on a panel discussion on online platforms organised by the working group on Iintellectual property rights and copyright reform at the European Parliament. The group is chaired by Jean-Marie Cavada.
The invitation has come over Dreamstime/ Serban Enache, a long time member of CEPIC but also founding member of the European Tech Alliance: http://eutechalliance.eu/
CEPIC members are online platforms – in the large definition adopted by the EC – and holders of rights.
Panelists are:
- Mr Helge Kleinwege, Policy Officer, “Intellectual Property and Fight Against Counterfeiting” Unit, DG GROWTH
- Mr Eric Peters, Deputy Head of Unit “Digital Single Market” and Ms María Martin-Prat, Head of Unit “Copyright”, DG CNECT
- Ms Elena Segal, Director, iTunes International (Apple)
- Ms Eirini Zafeiratou, Director Public Policy, Amazon
- Ms Marine Elgrichi, Head of Public Policy Europe, Spotify
- Ms Sylvie Fodor, Executive Director, Coordination of European Picture Agencies Press Stock Heritage
CEPIC participated in the public consultation on the regulatory environment for platforms, online intermediaries, data and cloud computing and the collaborative economy. CEPIC’s submission may be consulted in the Login Area of the CEPIC website. (HERE)
The panel on the copyright working group will therefore be a great opportunity to present CEPIC’s point of view on platforms and their relationship with copyright holders as outlined in the CEPIC White Paper on the Protection of Image Providers Online.
