NELIC Confirms Franny Lee
As promised, this week has a whole slew of news coming out from NELIC conference headquarters.
Today, I’m very excited to announce that we’ve confirmed that Franny Lee will be joining us for the conference in April! Franny is a former composer and jazz musician, and a graduate of Stanford Law School in their Law, Science, and Technology program. In the past, she has worked as an intellectual property litigator at Cassels Brock & Blackwell in Toronto, and has provided advice and guidance to the Copyright Board of Canada. She’s currently a Resident Fellow at the Stanford Center for Computer and Law.
At the conference, she’ll be speaking on our legal interfaces session, tackling the implications and best practices around the creation of “human-readable” systems that make it easy for even non-lawyers navigate legal work and transactions. Specifically, she’ll be discussing her work on the soon-to-be-launched Stanford Intellectual Property Exchange, a service that is aiming to provide a streamlined online marketplace for managing copyright clearances. It’s groundbreaking stuff, in our humble opinions, and NELIC is absolutely thrilled to have her.
We’ve updated our schedule as per usual. And, true to our word, registration for the conference will be officially opening up tomorrow! Stay tuned.
