BAPLA FOCUS on Copyright

Hello from BAPLA

Following the huge success of BAPLA’s FOCUS event last year and the demand for more events of this nature, we are pleased to announce that on the 14th May 2015 BAPLA will be running an essential one-day workshop entitled BAPLA FOCUS on Copyright, to be held at Digital Catapult’s office, Kings Cross. 

This is your opportunity to get to grips with the latest copyright changes made over the past year, how to understand and apply them in working situations, and how to adapt our business models to accommodate these changes or find new models more suited to these challenging times. BAPLA members will benefit from a comprehensive day where industry experts tackle the major themes affecting your business and at a discounted rate. BAPLA members will get the opportunity to mingle with buyers and other peers from across industry to guarantee lively debate and all-encompassing dialogue.

Each session will be debated by a panel of media specialists before we open to the floor for Q&A:

  • Can I still license? The impact of copyright exceptions
  • Extended Collective LicensingWill ‘extended’ secondary licensing benefit picture libraries and agencies?
  • What’s the meaning of copyright? How relevant is it in today’s world
  • Do we need to get permission for 3D design works? The impact of the repeal of Section 52 of the CDPA 1988
  • Social Media – potential or pitfall? How can we navigate the content sharing landscape

An event not to be missed, this is your opportunity to obtain indispensable information to enable you to make the right decisions to gain an advantage within our competitive market. 

You can find the full event programme on our blog, giving you the details of the event programme.

Tickets are available through Eventbrite, book now to avoid disappointment.

We look forward to meeting you at FOCUS on Copyright, a unique one-off event.
