ArtWorks has announced an unparalleled Continuing Legal Education (CLE) experience in Paris from October 11-14, 2024. This immersive weekend is designed to enlighten and educate legal professionals on the convergence of art and law, emphasizing the vital role of Intellectual Property (IP) in our global society.

Participants will embark on a journey that includes a tour at the Louvre to discover the intersection of art and intellectual property in one of the world’s most famous museums. They will also explore the legal intricacies and historical significance of the Arc de Triomphe, and enjoy a boat tour along the Seine, all while discussing global IP trends. The weekend continues with a Global IP Innovation Award Ceremony, celebrating groundbreaking achievements in intellectual property on an international stage with honored guests and members of the Madrid Protocol.

ArtWorks goal is to educate attorneys and other attendees on the economic and artistic value of Intellectual Property through a series of workshops, lectures, and IP Art exhibit tours at the Louvre. These sessions will highlight the intricate relationship between artistic expression and legal rights, featuring real-life stories of artists impacted by copyright infringement.

The conference kicks off on Friday, Oct. 11, with a welcome reception, allowing attorneys, their guests, and other participants to unwind and immerse themselves in Paris. The evening includes a networking segment for legal professionals, an overview of the weekend’s activities, and an academic/CLE briefing.

The sessions include Intellectual Property discussions from the Artist’s Perspective, from an Attorney’s Perspective, and a Keynote lecture on Intellectual Property and International Law. The day concludes with an awards ceremony honoring Madrid Treaty honorees including countries such as Jamaica.

On Sunday, Oct. 13, participants will experience Paris from various angles.  They will enjoy a boat tour along the Seine and another module in the weekend’s Lecture and Q&A Series.  This one will take place at the Arc de Triomphe. The day will wrap up with a closing ceremony and brunch.
