Q&A: Legal issues for game developers

Key Facts

The Q&A is specially designed for computer game developers.
It will take place on Monday, February 17, 2019 at 6:00 pm.
The event will be held on the ITMediaLaw server via Discord.
All questions about founding, youth protection law, subsidies and copyright are welcome.
Participation is free of charge and is open to all developers, regardless of their level of experience.
Early idling in the chat is desired in order to interact more.
Sharing and retweets are very welcome to reach more participants.

In addition to e-sports teams/gamers, streamers and influencers, I also continue to advise game developers on the review and drafting of publishing contracts, but also with regard to questions of incorporation.

Since my previous Q&As have been well received and I’ve gotten numerous queries, the next Q&A will be geared specifically for computer game developers. Whether you’re an indie or a pro, ask your questions to a lawyer with a focus on computer games – and it’s absolutely free.

Monday 17 February 2019 at 18:00.

Since Discord has proven itself so far and I assume that every developer of computer games is familiar with Discord, the whole thing will again take place on the ITMediaLaw server.

The topics are not narrowed down. I will therefore try to answer questions about the formation of corporations as well as questions about the new law for the protection of minors, subsidies or copyright.

Feel free to idle in the chat beforehand and as always I would be happy about shares, retweets, recommendations and more
