1-2pm U.S. Eastern Time, Wednesday, November 10. No charge, but registration required. Archived for future (re)viewing.
Speaker:
Steven J. McDonald, General Counsel, Rhode Island School of Design
Summary:
Cloud computing raises not only technical but also legal and policy issues. All of them come into play — and should come into focus — in the contract. In this session, we’ll review some of the most common issues that can (and should) arise in cloud contracts, as well as general approaches to contracting, both individual and collective. And, just when you thought Halloween was over, we’ll also explore the process — and pleasures — of collaborating with your lawyer to get everything worked out.
