founder of the Virtual Policy Networkthink tank, Ren Reynolds has announced a virtual worlds-orientedconference happening in two weeks time, just before the busy DevelopConference takes off in Brighton. It's called Virtual Policy 08 and is co-sponsored by BERR, the Department for Business Enterprise and Regulatory Reform (former DTI). Taking as its starting points four key legal and regulatory issues,this event aims to bring together practitioners, policy makers andpublic servants for two days to grapple with Intellectual PropertyRights, Financial Transaction, Children Online and GovernanceFrameworks.
From Ren's post on Terra Nova,
What interests me about this event is that much of the debate aboutvirtual worlds that one sees in academia, at least, has been driven bythe US. This means that North American issues, rhetoric andsensibilities have been given primacy. Hosting an event in the UKshould help to flush out those areas where Europeans either don't thinkan issue is important or have a very different framing of it.
Virtual Policy 08 takes place in London on 22nd & 23rd July. More information is here.
