This engaging event aims to unite leading international scholars, QUB School of Law members, and university representatives to explore pressing issues relevant for building a sustainable algorithmic society, and establish a programmatic research agenda for the G-IPTech Centre. Featuring panels on globalization, sustainability, creative economy, and fundamental rights, the workshop fosters collaboration and idea exchange on key IP/IT legal challenges, such as current policy debate surrounding whether we should ban or temporarily halt LLMs and other similar AI technologies.

The dialogue regarding the Centre's future trajectory and research focus will be significantly enriched by the involvement of esteemed Directors from prominent global IT and IP research centres. Kicking off the workshop, Lord Justice Arnold will deliver a keynote speech, inaugurating the Centre and setting the stage for the panel discussions to follow. Open to all, the event encourages participants from various backgrounds to contribute their perspectives to the conversation.
