Professor Dinusha Mendis (Professor of Intellectual Property and Innovation Law and Director of the Centre for Intellectual Property Policy and Management (CIPPM), Bournemouth University) gave a lecture on copyright law considerations in the metaverse under UK and Japanese law. The lecture summarized some of her research findings that she developed during her visit to Waseda University RCLIP throughout the summer of 2023. We very much enjoyed her visit and lecture, are looking forward to continue working with Prof. Mendis!
