SUMMARY:The future of professional identities in project delivery
DESCRIPTION:Transforming the construction industry through offsite manufacturing and digital technologies.\n\n\n\n******Due to the recent Covid-19 pandemic\, this event has been cancelled. Please DO NOT attend this event.****** \nEVENT INFORMATION \nDate: Thursday 28th May 2020 \nTime: 18:00 tea and coffee for 18:20 start\, 19:30 finish \nVenue: Main Auditorium\, Institution of Structural Engineers HQ\, 47-58 Bastwick St\, London EC1V 3PS \nTickets: FREE for members and non-members \nSCHEDULE \n18:00 – 18:20 Tea and Coffee Reception \n18:20 – 19:20 Talk \n19:20 – 19:30 Q&A \n19:40                   Close \nSYNOPSIS \nCurrent developments in the UK construction sector are aimed at increasing the use of offsite manufacturing and digital technologies for the delivery of construction projects. These approaches are gradually changing how assets are designed\, built and managed\, as well as changing the professional services that underpin key areas of project delivery. The uptake of these ‘modern’ approaches will impact the roles that design professionals play in the construction sector – what will the future be for professional identities in delivering projects using offsite manufacturing and digital technologies?The presentation will highlight the potential implications that developments around OSM and digital technology applications hold for construction design professionals. This will be followed by an interactive discussion about the relevant capabilities that construction professionals/firms could consider exploring in order to remain relevant and competitive in a digitally enabled and OSM-driven environment for project delivery. \nSPEAKER \nDr Kwadwo Oti-Sarpong  BSc PhD  \nResearch Associate | University of Cambridge \nDr Kwadwo Oti-Sarpong is a Research Associate at the Cambridge Centre for Housing and Planning Research\, Department of Land Economy\, University of Cambridge. He is part of a team investigating the non-technical inhibitors to an industry-wide uptake of digital technologies in the construction industry. His research seeks to understand why digital approaches have not yet become mainstream despite their widely acknowledged benefits\, and to make suggestions as to how industry-wide changes can be made. Additionally\, the research explores how emerging digital technologies can be integrated with off-site manufacturing (OSM) to increase the potential for widespread uptake in the UK construction industry. \nInspired by his interest in construction technology and its application in project settings\, Kwadwo studied for a PhD in the Department of Real Estate and Construction\, University of Hong Kong (HKU). He used the social construction of technology (SCOT) approach to explore the complex interactions embedded in a project-based technology adoption processes in a new environment.  \nHe previously worked as a Post-Doctoral Researcher at Hong Kong University where he investigated how small and medium construction firms were responding to a government mandate for compulsory building information modelling (BIM) use on all public works projects. Specifically\, he examined these developments through the ‘Digital Divide’ theoretical lens. With industry experience in both consulting and on-site roles serving clients and contractors on various building projects\, Kwadwo has extensive teaching experience at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels.  \n \nDownload flyer as pdf \nRegister for ticket or to share this event: https://Cam-KO.eventbrite.co.uk \n\n\n\nNOTE \nPlaces are limited and this event has a awaiting list\, please cancel the ticket if no longer required. \nAll events listed in our regional group can be found here: http://IStructE-NTRG.eventbrite.com \nThis event will not be recorded or live streamed online.

SUMMARY:An ABC of Sales and Marketing for Law Firms
DESCRIPTION:Why is it that for some legal practices ‘selling’ is seen as a bad word? Why do many firms still worry more about acquiring new clients rather than keeping the ones that they have? \nThis session is suitable for anyone within a legal firm dealing with the public or with an interest in the sales and marketing process. We will look at some common issues for every business and some of the solutions that have been applied successfully and are current best practice. We will consider what ‘selling’ is and how we can do it better and better and without selling. We will look at the ‘value’ of our existing clients and how to maximise this for their and our benefit. Finally we will consider some of the challenges that prevent organisations adopting change and how to address it. \nCPD 2 Hours \nRegistration and Coffee 1:30pm \nPEAT Outcome – Relevant legal knowledge \nOBJECTIVES \nSeminar Topics: \n\nThe importance of selling\nWhat selling actually is in a legal context\nDeveloping the whole practice with marketing in mind\nThe importance of existing clients\nOvercoming barriers to change\n\nLearning Outcomes: \n\nThe importance of marketing within a legal business\nHow to develop meaningful client relationships\nThe value of our existing clients\nThe importance of the whole organisation in marketing efforts\nThe barriers to change and how to address them\n\nPARTICIPANTS \nThis seminar will be of interest to anyone in a legal firm who deals with the public or has an interest in sales and marketing. \nSPEAKER \nStephen Vallance\, Harper Macleod.

SUMMARY:Will blockchain disrupt  IP legal services ?
DESCRIPTION:Is blockchain THE solution to efficiently acquire\, govern and commercialized copyright and patent protected content?\n\n\n\nSuccess of companies  often depends upon the ability to manage and exploit intellectual property (IP).  The introduction of new blockchain-enabled tools to represent unique assets and to manage the development and payments for IP\, will drive innovation across the value chain.

SUMMARY:Between Impunity And Imperialism: The Regulation Of Transnational Bribery
DESCRIPTION:Book Launch for: ‘Between Impunity And Imperialism: The Regulation Of Transnational Bribery’ by Kevin E. Davis\n\n\n\nTickets will be released from 09.00 on Friday 3 April. \nWhen people pay bribes to foreign public officials\, how should the law respond? This question has been debated ever since the enactment of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977\, and some of the key arguments can be traced back to Cicero in the last years of the Roman Republic and Edmund Burke in late eighteenth-century England.  \nIn recent years\, the U.S. and other members of the OECD have joined forces to make anti-bribery law one of the most prominent sources of liability for firms and individuals who operate across borders. The modern regime is premised on the idea that transnational bribery is a serious problem which invariably merits a vigorous legal response. The shape of that response can be summed up in the phrase “every little bit helps\,” which in practice means that: prohibitions on bribery should capture a broad range of conduct; enforcement should target as broad a range of actors as possible; sanctions should be as stiff as possible; and as many agencies as possible should be involved in the enforcement process. An important challenge to the OECD paradigm\, labelled here the “anti-imperialist critique\,” accepts that transnational bribery is a serious problem but questions the conventional responses.  \nThis book uses a series of high-profile cases to illustrate key elements of transnational bribery law in action\, and analyzes the law through the lenses of both the OECD paradigm and the anti-imperialist critique. It ultimately defends a distinctively inclusive and experimentalist approach to transnational bribery law. \n \nAbout the Speakers \nKevin E. Davis is Vice Dean and Beller Family Professor of Business Law at New York University School of Law. His current research focuses on contract law\, anti-corruption law\, and the general relationship between law and economic development. Before entering academia\, Professor Davis served as Law Clerk to Justice John Sopinka of the Supreme Court of Canada and was an associate in the Toronto office of Torys\, a Canadian law firm.

He also has held visiting positions at the University of Southern California\, Cambridge University’s Clare Hall\, the University of the West Indies (Cave Hill)\, Fundação Getúlio Vargas\, São Paulo and the University of Toronto.   \nJeremy Horder is Professor of Criminal Law at The London School of Economics. His research interests include history\, philosophy and politics of English criminal law\, and criminal law reform\, more particularly\, homicide\, bribery and corruption\, and the intersection of criminal law and other forms of sanction. Professor Horder was a Research Fellow at Jesus College\, Oxford\, from 1987-1989\, and the Porjes Trust Tutorial Fellow in Law at Worcester College\, Oxford\, from 1989-2010. He was Chairman of Oxford’s Faculty of Law from 1998-2000. From 2005-2010\, he was a Law Commissioner for England and Wales\, with responsibility for criminal law reform\, before becoming Edmund Davies Professor of Criminal Law at King’s College London\, from 2010-2013. He is an Honorary Bencher of the Middle Temple and holds an Honorary LL.D from the University of Hull. \nJames Mather is a barrister at Serle Court.

SUMMARY:Rethinking Derivatives Regulation
DESCRIPTION:Rethinking Derivatives Regulation – Steven L. Schwarcz\n\n\n\nAbstract: \nThe conventional wisdom is that derivatives are exotic and uniquely risky\, although innovative\, financial instruments. That perception has given rise to a regulatory patchwork described as confusing\, incomplete\, and contradictory. This lecture will rethink how derivatives should be regulated. It will begin by de-mystifying derivatives. In contrast to the arcane industry-derived categories\, the lecture will show that derivatives can be deconstructed more intuitively\, by their economic functions\, into two categories of traditional legal instruments—option contracts and guarantees. Being neither exotic nor uniquely risky\, most derivatives should be regulated like those traditional instruments. The lecture then will explain why at least one subset of guarantees—financial guarantees with systemically important counterparties\, which are epitomized by credit-default swap (CDS) derivatives—can seriously threaten economic stability\, and why the absence of an insurable-interest requirement can further magnify that threat. Finally\, the lecture will examine how to design regulation that efficiently targets that threat. \nBio: \nSteven L. Schwarcz is the Stanley A. Star Professor of Law & Business at Duke University and Founding Director of Duke’s interdisciplinary Global Capital Markets Center (now renamed the Global Financial Markets Center). His areas of research and scholarship include insolvency and bankruptcy law\, international finance\, capital markets\, systemic risk\, corporate governance\, and commercial law. He holds a bachelor’s degree in aerospace engineering (summa cum laude) and a Juris Doctor from Columbia Law School. Prior to joining the Duke faculty\, he was a partner at two of the world’s leading law firms and Visiting Lecturer at Yale Law School. He also helped to pioneer the field of asset securitization\, and his book\, Structured Finance\, A Guide to the Principles of Asset Securitization (3d edition)\, is one of the most widely used texts in the field. \nProfessor Schwarcz has also been the Leverhulme Visiting Professor at the University of Oxford\, Visiting Professor at the University of Geneva Faculty of Law\, Lecturer in Law at Columbia Law School\, Senior Fellow at The University of Melbourne Law School\, Visiting Fellow at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitat Munchen (LMU) Center for Advanced Studies\, Guest Professor at Shanghai University of International Business and Economics\, Distinguished Visiting Professor at University College London (UCL) Faculty of Laws\, Distinguished Honorary Professor\, University of Durham Law School\, the MacCormick Fellow at The University of Edinburgh School of Law\, the Liberty Fellow at the University of Leeds School of Law (scheduled for May-June 2020)\, and an adviser to the United Nations.

SUMMARY:Counselling\, Psychotherapy\, Ethics and the Law
DESCRIPTION:This workshop aims to clarify the basic contours of the law in relation to therapeutic practice.\n\n\n\nLaw is rarely included as a core part of our initial trainng as therapists. This can lead to uncertainty about the extent of our professional obligations towards employers and clients\, and to concerns about our own legal liability\, as evidenced in the increased use of terms such as ‘duty of care’ within our professional discussions. This participative workshop aims to clarify the basic contours of the law in relation to our therapeutic practice and to translate these concepts into more familiar ethical concepts. The key concept of ‘duty of care’ towards clients will be explored and unpacked by discussing a landmark case of alleged therapist negligence\, and by identifying some of the main implications for practising in a safe and competent manner.
