EVENT ALERT!


6TH ANNUAL BUSINESS LAW CONFERENCE OF THE SECTION ON BUSINESS LAW (NBA)
DATE:  JUNE 17-20 2012
@
EKO HOTELS & SUITES, VICTORIA ISLAND, LAGOS


I am particularly interested in the Special Session on ICT LAW which will feature interactive debates on the IMPACT OF CONVERGENCE ON ICT REGULATION IN NIGERIA, covered under the following sub-heads: 

1. Where Data Collection Mandates Collide: Forging a central Data Protection Regime
2. The Clash of Statutes: Resolving Regulatory Conflicts over Critical Information Infrastructure in Nigeria - The NCC/NESREA Case
3. Telecoms or Financial Services?: The Challenges of Mobile Money Regulation in Nigeria

The Break-out session of the Young Lawyers' Forum also promises to be an entertaining platform for vibrant exchanges between both the green and greying sections of the Bar.

And oh! the Opening Cocktail of course!

For obvious reasons, I have a huge bias for this sub-genre of Technology governance and may lay it a little too thick now and again. 
In the meantime, let's share the 2011 version of the DIGITAL MUSIC REPORT compiled by the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI). It is an absolutely delightful read!
