Worlds Colliding at Fordham

When Worlds Collide: Intellectual Property at the Interface Between Systems of Knowledge Creation

October 31, 2008, 9:00 AM-5:30 PM
and November 1, 2008, 9:00 AM-3:00 PM
Fordham Law School | 140 West 62nd Street, New York, NY

Technological advances and other types of knowledge creation result from the activities of a wide variety of actors, including individuals, private firms, informal communities and networks, consortia, universities, and the government. The Symposium will consider how law should address the growing interface between the commercially-driven innovation, which has been the traditional focus of intellectual property doctrine and other important social systems of knowledge creation.
