The Supreme Court of Canada recently issued five landmark copyright decisions and changes to the Copyright Act were given Royal Assent in June. The combined impact of these developments will have a lasting effect on the state of copyright law in Canada.

They will discuss how these important and wide-ranging decisions and the changes made to the Copyright Act will affect your practice and provide tips and strategies for the years to come.
Vladimir Biriulin and Evgeny Alexandrov of Gorodissky & Partners speak to Simon Crompton of Managing IP about the new IP Court, the Customs union and other factors affecting protection of international trade marks in Russia.
