Legal risks can take multiple forms in the publishing industry!

If you work in the book publishing / creative industries, or you are a small publisher, or you are looking to publish a book in the near future, then this event is for you.

Publishing Scotland along with BTO’s Paul Motion, Lynn Richmond and Lauren McFarlane of our Media and Creative Industries team are hosting a ‘free’ discussion and Q&A on strategies to avoid legal headaches.

Some of the areas they will cover:

  • Libel and defamation risks (which are particularly inherent in works of non-fiction).
  • IP (in particular copyright and copyright infringement).
  • Key contractual provisions.
  • Basic governance requirements.

This a informal session held over a glass of wine and some snacks providing an overview of what to think about and how to prepare.
