Speakers: Johannes Ulbricht, Martin Schaefer, Peter Marx, Benjamin Bailer, Alexander Ross.
The music industry invests in artists, promoters invest in concerts. The contracts artists have to sign for these stipulate conditions such as exclusivity and transference of rights to safeguard the position of record companies and the promoters. Regardless of this, more and more live recordings are being produced be it on private digital cameras and mobile phones or from professional operators with the necessary equipment. Private and commercial recordings can be found on the internet or are offered with the approval of artists, promoters and record companies. Renowned, internationally active entertainment business lawyers will discuss the legal problems and
economic opportunities in this branch with the founder of a live recording copyright collection company.
