Executive Workshop: AI, Copyright & IP (half day)

This workshop is designed for technology and business leaders who need to understand the evolving intersection of AI, software development, and intellectual property. It covers key legal and technical issues around copyright ownership, AI-generated code, open source licensing, and protecting innovation. Delivered jointly by an IP attorney and a software delivery consultant, the session grounds every legal concept in how development teams actually work. Participants leave with a decision framework for AI tool adoption, questions to ask their legal and engineering teams, and a clear picture of where their company’s IP strategy is exposed in an AI-driven landscape.

AI Risk Mitigation for Legal & Compliance (full day)

This workshop is tailored for in-house legal, compliance, and risk management professionals navigating the complexities of AI in software development. It provides a comprehensive overview of copyright law, ownership issues, open source obligations, and recent case law impacting AI-generated content, taught by the attorney-and-technologist team behind whoownsthecode.com. Special focus is given to practical risk mitigation, and attendees leave with sample contract language, a policy development checklist, documentation templates for establishing human authorship, and a model internal review process they can adapt to their organization.
