It was great to welcome so many clients, friends and international DLA Piper team members to our summit at the Royal Institution last Thursday.

The only constant is change, as they say. Over the course of the afternoon we investigated current challenges in movie and television financing, best practice in tackling digital piracy, the cultural and regulatory issues posed by the inexorable rise of social media, the future of our national broadcasting industry (in the era of global media consolidation, shifting advertising markets and Brexit), and how the world’s leading OTT providers are shaping up to new era in audio-visual distribution.

Over the following weeks and months we will be continuing the conversations started at our summit – watch this space!

A big thanks to Simon Jack, our incredible line up of speakers, and of course, the hard work of the DLA Piper and Royal Institution teams who made it possible.
