Description

In the supply chain, data has increasingly become a strategic and sensitive asset, and a growing number of companies base their business model on the use, access, analysis and dissemination of such data. The result, in part, is that “data” has become an important intellectual property asset that begs the question how such data can – and must be – protected, managed and disclosed. This session will consider and discuss: • how data driven-business models work; • how data can be protected from an IP and civil law perspective; • international use of data/protection of data under unfair competition law; • when should data be considered non-personal and which claims do individuals have affecting the data asset; • which rights exist for companies to get access to data under antitrust law; and • contracts, data and electronic invoicing.
