SIMONA LAVAGNINI RELATRICE AD UN WEBINAR ORGANIZZATO DA MICROSOFT SUI RISCHI DEL SOFTWARE CONTRAFFATTO

20/06/2017

Il prossimo 27 giugno, alle 11.00, l’Avv. Simona Lavagnini parteciperà come relatrice ad un webinar organizzato da Microsoft sulla valorizzazione del patrimonio software dell’azienda, le conseguenze legali derivanti dalla vendita e dall’uso del software contraffatto, le modalità di gestione dei contratti IT e di licenza software.

 

Il software è ormai una risorsa di fondamentale importanza per tutte le aziende, che si trovano spesso a gestire un certo numero di contratti IT, che possono variare dallo sviluppo software, all’outsourcing, alle licenze d’uso. È essenziale che le aziende conoscano le caratteristiche di questi contratti, i rischi ad essi legati e le modalità migliori di controllo, per ottimizzare l’uso delle risorse e per evitare di incorrere in conseguenze negative.

L’Avv. Simona Lavagnini, Partner dello Studio LGV Avvocati, fornirà il quadro completo dei diritti sul software come opera dell’ingegno, trattando anche delle conseguenze legali di natura civile, penale e amministrativa connesse all’utilizzo di software senza licenza, ovvero con licenze non corrette. Esaminerà non solo i profili di tutela previsti dalla legge del diritto d’autore, ma anche le violazioni e i rimedi configurabili nell’ambito del diritto della concorrenza e della tutela del consumatore. L’Avv. Lavagnini fornirà infine importanti suggerimenti per riconoscere il software non genuino ed evitare i rischi legati al suo utilizzo.

Parteciperanno come relatori anche Paolo Valcher, Direttore della divisione Software Asset Management e Tutela Diritto d’Autore, e Marco Cattaneo, Product Marketing Manager Windows Commercial, di Microsoft Italia.
