10:00am - 10:50am DRM Markets I: Mobile and Wireless Content
The market for mobile devices has yet to settle on a wireless equivalent of the Sony Walkman, in part because of the enormous range of possible business models as well as device types. Yet mobile content business models are emerging, as mobile content is poised to move rapidly beyond ring tones and camera phones. DRM is an integral part of the technologies that will enable the next generation of mobile content models. Attend this session to learn how wireless operators and content providers are using DRM in their newest technologies and business models.

11:00am - 11:50am DRM Markets II: E-Publishing
DRM has taken hold in a number of niche markets in e-publishing, including e-newspapers, e-zines, and e-books in both trade titles and textbooks. Publishers are de-emphasizing free web content and turning to premium online products. They need to transition their readership to paid products by providing value while also protecting copyright. Learn how top publishers are taking advantage of DRM technologies in their paid content distribution models and what markets they are serving with new DRM-enabled offerings.
Moderator:
Bill Trippe, President, New Millennium Publishing
Speakers:
Sanford Bingham, President, FileOpen Systems, Inc.
Michele Chaboudy, Chief Marketing Officer, NEWSSTAND, Inc.
Jonathan Stowe, Director, New Initiatives, John Wiley & Sons
 
12:00pm - 1:30pm Lunch Break

 
1:30pm - 2:20pm DRM Markets III: Peer-to-Peer Networks
Are peer-to-peer networks and DRM compatible or mutually exclusive? Although many advocates from both sides of the digital copyright debate won't budge from their positions, there are glimmers of hope that content owners will embrace P2P networks for their viral content distribution models by finding the right balance between freedom, piracy deterrence, and business model flexibility. This session will feature stimulating debate and glimpses of the future.
Moderator:
Christopher Levy, CEO & President, BuyDRM
Speakers:
Randall Crockett, Dir, Business Development, DRM Networks
Martin C. Lafferty, Chief Executive Officer, DCIA
Chip Venters, CEO, Digital Containers
 
2:30pm - 3:15pm Digital Copyright Debate Keynote Panel
Networked digital technology has wreaked more havoc on copyright law than any other development in its history. Laws that were defined with physical media products in mind are being contorted to fit today's infinitely flexible and real-time reality, and new laws are being proposed or enacted that attempt to plug holes in the existing framework. How do the rights of both content owners and consumers figure into these developments, and where will it all end up? How can or should laws affect digital media technologies? To debate these matters, we have assembled a panel of world-class experts representing a broad range of perspectives on digital copyright. We'll discuss issues related to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, other pending digital copyright legislation, fair use, levies, the Betamax standard, and other topics of urgency for everyone in the content value chain. Join us for a lively debate that should be as incendiary as it is informative.

3:15pm - 3:45pm Afternoon Break

 
3:45pm - 4:30pm Legal Issues I: Regulatory and Policy Compliance
In today's post-9/11, post-Enron world, security and information integrity have been ratcheted up as top concerns for corporate information executives. In certain vertical markets, such as financial services and healthcare, recent legislation has prompted new levels of need for automated compliance - needs that DRM and related technologies can fill. Attend this session to learn about the challenges that corporate security officers face and how technology solutions are rapidly being developed that help meet those challenges.

Glen Secor, Principal, Secor Law and Information Group
 
4:40pm - 5:30pm Legal Issues II: Rights Licensing
Many intellectual property owners are so focused on protecting IP rights that they often overlook opportunities to leverage their value. When the various rights inherent in a piece of intellectual property are unbundled, potential licensing opportunities emerge, leading to new and often unexpected revenues for those who seize upon them. In this session, we will take a hard and honest look at rights licensing: the opportunities, the risks, the requirements for effective rights licensing, the role of DRM in the process and more. Our discussion will also consider the tension between rights management on the part of content owners and the exercise of fair use by content users.
