SCAPR’S REGIONAL WORKSHOP ON PERFORMERS’ RIGHTS

Datum: 04. 11. 2015

On Thursday, 12th of November 2015 will be a regional conference of SCAPR, the Societies' Council for the Collective Management of Performers' Rights, dealing with most current international topics.

Apart from right holders from the territory of the Western Balkans (Macedonia, Serbia, Montenegro, Kosovo, Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia), France and Great Britain, representatives of Intellectual Property Offices from those countries are also invited to participate.

Though this is a regular yearly meeting with a defined structure, this time, due to two extremely important national Legal acts, which are currently being discussed (Copyright act and Act on collective management of copyright), both domestic and foreign experts dealing with copyright and administrative law are expected to attend. The event will thus provide a valuable and unmissable opportunity for an comparison of good practices, and more importantly exchange of opinions about the upcoming legislature changes, which are about to implement the EU CRM Directive.
