Description

On the 27th of September, Digital Marketing London is back in full effect from the summer break to bring you yet another great night of networking, socialising and education.

This month’s meet up addresses the important subject of Internet law in relation to social media. Social media has changed the way we communicate and the way that our customers and consumers talk about our business. This openness of conversation has lead to a rise of recent cases involving people and companies being sued for comments that have been made on the social web.

In recent months we've seen some very interesting test cases involving "footballers" that couldn't be named on the news but were being discussed in social, gagging orders in social media and defamation cases being brought by celebrities over comments that have been made in social. The list goes on and on…. But it doesn’t end here and has become part of every day life for all of us.  

This month we will hear Peter Adediran of PAIL Solicitors discuss how the law has changed and how it’s being applied in cases like these and what we need to know as marketers and internet citizens to keep on the right side of the law.

Don't forget to bring your business cards to exchange with the great contacts you will meet and to drop of for our prize draw to win a top quality bottle of Champagne.
