Register here

In this live interactive tutorial, designed for students studying or interested in Law as well as those from Business and Economics, we will be joined by Dr Angharad James, Lecturer in Law in the Department of Law & Criminology at Aberystwyth University, who will present Exploitation Of Intellectual Property & The Global Economy.

Over recent decades, the exploitation of intellectual property has played a pivotal role in the global economy. Given the wide range of intellectual property subject matter from books, songs, films, podcasts, computer programs to company logos and pharmaceuticals, it is no surprise that this is an area of law which is constantly developing and responding to change.

This session will give an overview of the different forms of intellectual property and will give an insight into some key cases that try to address the challenges posed by this ever expanding area of law.

The full context/introduction to this live and interactive discussion is provided below in a Headliner recorded resource. This recording can be watched as a class activity or independently in preparation for the live discussion.

The session aims to deepen students’ understanding of the topic whilst enabling them to access and experience a live online university tutorial.
