In this episode, a panel of legal experts discusses the different approaches taken by the Second and Ninth Circuits on two key areas of copyright law: substantial similarity and the Server Test. Presented by the New York City Bar Association's Copyright & Literary Property and Entertainment Law Committees, the panel explores recent and emerging case law and the Second and Ninth Circuits' divergent approaches to analyzing substantial similarity, a key element of copyright infringement, as well as the ongoing debate surrounding the Server Test, which addresses whether the posting of online content constitutes a “display” within the meaning of the Copyright Act. Moderated by Dwayne Amos, Associate at Kasowitz LLP, the episode features a panel of leading copyright litigators and experts, including: • Barry Werbin, Counsel, Herrick Feinstein LLP • Aaron Moss, Partner, Mitchell Silberberg & Knupp LLP and author of the Copyright Lately blog • Marc Lebowitz, Principal, Lebowitz Law Office • James Bartolomei, Of Counsel, Duncan Firm The wide-ranging discussion covers the practical implications of these divergent approaches for copyright owners, litigators, content creators, online platforms, forum selection, free speech, and the application of copyright law nationwide. This episode was produced by Jose Landivar, Senior Associate at Coates IP LLP, with contributions from Philippa Loengard, Executive Director, Kernochan Center for Law, Media and the Arts and Lecturer in Law at Columbia Law School, and support from the New York City Bar Association Communications Team.

In this episode of the Social Inclusion Series*, we explore how social protection systems can support greater inclusion for persons with disabilities across the Asia-Pacific region. Most of them face multiple and interconnected barriers, ranging from inaccessible environments and social stigma to the high costs of healthcare, assistive technologies, and care. When these needs go unmet, they can lead to increased risk of poverty, reduced participation in education and employment, and diminished well-being for individuals and their families. This episode examines how governments and communities are working to address these challenges. We unpack “cash-plus” approaches that combine income support with health coverage, assistive devices, and care services, and look at how countries, especially in Southeast Asia, are designing more inclusive and responsive forms of support.. Meet our guests:  Abner Manlapaz, Senior Associate of Center for Inclusive Policy (CIP) Charles Knox-Vydmanov, Social Policy Specialist (Inclusive Social Protection – Disability), UNICEF For our Quick Wins segment, we spoke with Sam Drummond, the host of the podcast ‘Building Inclusion', a limited podcast series that highlights the voices shaping the future of disability inclusion in Australia. *The Social Inclusion Series, produced by socialprotection.org in partnership with Australia's Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT), is a three-part series that explores how social protection systems can advance the economic and social inclusion of vulnerable populations across the Indo-Pacific, in line with GEDSI principles, addressing key themes such as gender equality, demographic shifts, and disability inclusion.   Resources: Multimedia | Building Inclusion: Australia's Disability Strategy Publication | Global Disability Inclusion Report Publication | Methodological Guidelines on Assessing Household Disability-Related Costs and Their Implication for Participation Publication | Building an inclusive future: Social protection as a catalyst for disability empowerment in Viet Nam Publication| Bridging the information gap towards inclusive governance

The proposed Single Neighbourhood Provider Contract could significantly reshape how services are commissioned and delivered at neighbourhood level, but with many details still to be confirmed, PCNs are being faced with important decisions now. In this episode, Ben Gowland is joined by Robert McCartney, Senior Associate at Hempsons, to discuss what we know so far about the SNP Contract, the growing focus on neighbourhood footprints, and how local PCN DES variations could provide opportunities for PCNs to begin implementing change without waiting for national guidance. They explore the practical steps PCNs can take to strengthen their position, including leadership, governance, incorporation, and service redesign. Robert shares why proactive PCNs may be best placed to influence the future of neighbourhood working, maintain control of local services, and demonstrate their ability to lead change across their communities. Introduction (0:08) What are PCNs and practices asking for support with right now? (0:41) Why are some PCNs preparing for the future while others are taking a wait-and-see approach? (1:25) What impact are funding changes having on PCNs and workforce planning? (2:46) What is the Single Neighbourhood Provider (SNP) Contract? (4:09) How could neighbourhood footprints affect PCN boundaries and membership? (6:01) Can multiple PCNs work together under a neighbourhood model?

What exactly do we mean by the term "killer acquisitions," and how are those deals analyzed any differently by antitrust enforcers? In this episode, host Anant Raut talks to economist Dr. Ethel Fonseca of RBB Economics and antitrust attorney Danny Mader of Hogan Lovells LLP about how potential "killer acquisitions" get reviewed by competition agencies, using real-world examples such as Sabre/Farelogix, Visa/Plaid, and Facebook/Instagram.

Rechenzentren bilden das Fundament unserer digitalen Gesellschaft. Gleichzeitig stehen Betreiber, Infrastrukturunternehmen und Projektverantwortliche vor immer größeren Herausforderungen. Der Bedarf wächst rasant, getrieben durch Cloud-Dienste, KI-Anwendungen und die fortschreitende Digitalisierung. Doch beim Ausbau stoßen viele Projekte an ihre Grenzen: fehlende Flächen, lange Genehmigungsverfahren, hohe Energieanforderungen und komplexe regulatorische Vorgaben. In dieser Folge von „Das Ohr am Netz“ sprechen Sidonie und Sven angesichts des eco Data Center Expert Awards und Summits 2026 über die Zukunft digitaler Infrastruktur in Europa. Im Mittelpunkt stehen die Fragen, wie Rechenzentren nachhaltig wachsen können, welche Rolle Energieversorgung und Resilienz spielen und warum rechtliche Rahmenbedingungen zunehmend entscheidend werden. Günter Eggers, Director Public bei NTT Datacenters, gibt Einblicke in die aktuelle Marktentwicklung aus Sicht eines Rechenzentrumsbetreibers. Im Gespräch geht es um steigende Nachfrage, neue Anforderungen durch KI-Anwendungen und die wachsende Bedeutung der Stromverfügbarkeit bei Standortentscheidungen. Außerdem thematisiert er regulatorische Vorgaben und warum Deutschland im europäischen Vergleich zunehmend unter Druck gerät. Sebastian Behr, Key Account Manager for Colocation Data Center, und Karsten Paeth, Director Sales & Solutions Central Europe, von ABB beleuchten die technischen Anforderungen moderner Rechenzentren und erklären, warum Energieversorgung und Ausfallsicherheit heute zentrale Infrastrukturthemen sind. Darüber hinaus diskutieren sie die steigenden Leistungsdichten durch KI, die zunehmende Geschwindigkeit neuer Projekte sowie die Rolle von Batteriespeichern für resiliente Systeme. Mit Micha Heise, Senior Associate bei Fieldfisher, spricht Sven über das Backbone des Internets und die rechtlichen Fragen hinter dem Ausbau digitaler Infrastruktur. Im Fokus stehen Glasfasertrassen, Wegerechte und die Herausforderungen beim Ausbau von Telekommunikationsnetzen über fremde Grundstücke. Das Interview gibt einen Vorgeschmack auf die Legal Fieldfisher Masterclass im Rahmen des Data Center Expert Summits 2026.

Every young person deserves access to high-quality education and career opportunities. But for young parents, none of that is possible without first solving for the basic need of childcare. In the sixth episode of the Annie E. Casey Foundation's series on what young people need to thrive, host Gloria Riviera talks with Bella Agee, a 21-year-old student, worker, and mom, and Quanic Fullard, Senior Associate of Family and Youth Financial Stability at the Annie E. Casey Foundation, about why access to childcare sets young parents up for success – and benefits the collective good.  This episode was made possible with support from the Annie E. Casey Foundation, an organization that develops solutions to build a brighter future for children, youth, families and communities. Learn more at aecf.org. 

In this episode, Partners, Beth Hale and Emma Bartlett, and Senior Associate, Gabrielle Lintott, discuss: An Employment Tribunal decision in which a Metropolitan Police worker with ADHD who had made inappropriate sexual comments in the workplace succeeded in an unfair dismissal claim because of procedural failures by the Police, including failure to properly consider medical evidence. This follows a string of cases where employers have been criticised for not properly taking medical evidence and reasonable adjustments required into account when managing performance, disciplinary and other workplace issues.  A recent advertising campaign featuring the ‘AI employee' – a woman who ‘outworks everyone' and will ‘never ask for a raise' – which has sparked controversy for its promotion of sexist stereotypes. We consider the role of AI in shaping access to different industries and roles. Sir Olly Robbins' dismissal from the Foreign Office and the learnings we can take from that story. We discuss this and the importance of encouraging people to speak up in the workplace, including where they have made a mistake. 

Sascha Lohmann on the impact of tariffs and sanctions on the German economy.Since the end of the Second World War, the world economy has operated on a set of shared assumptions: trade is mutually beneficial, interdependence engenders stability, and politics and economics are best kept separate. Germany built one of the strongest economies in the world on the basis of these assumptions. But they may no longer hold true.In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic shut down global supply chains and revealed how dependent advanced economies had become on goods produced thousands of miles away. In 2022, the Russian invasion of Ukraine forced Germany to wean itself off its dependence on cheap Russian gas, sending energy prices soaring. In 2025, the Trump administration turned tariffs into a political weapon, threatening Germany's export machine. And in February of this year, the United States and Israel attacked Iran, triggering the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, leading to yet another crisis energy markets. Four crises in just six years have called into question Germany's recipe for prosperity. This episode explores the state of Germany's economy in the geoeconomic zeitenwende, which has seen sanctions dent German export ambitions. Sascha Lohmann is a Senior Associate at the German Institute for International and Security Affairs. He is an expert on U.S. foreign and national security policy, transatlantic relations, and the intersection of political economy and national security.The Sanctions Age is hosted by Esfandyar Batmanghelidj and Josefine Petrick.To receive an email when new episodes are released, access episode transcripts, and read the hosts reflections on each episode, sign-up for the The Sanctions Age newsletter on Substack: https://www.thesanctionsage.com/

There is a stage in BigLaw where you are doing almost everything a partner does, running matters, managing clients, and making judgment calls, but you do not have the title or final authority. In this episode of Big Law Life, I walk through what can be an identity crisis for senior associates and why it is one of the most disorienting points in a legal career. I explain how BigLaw suggests a linear path from associate to partner, but then the senior associate role sits in an undefined middle where expectations expand faster than authority. I share specific examples of how this plays out in practice, from leading deals and litigation strategy to managing client relationships, while still needing to defer at key decision points.  I also break down why recognition often lags behind responsibility, how your work is filtered through partners, and why two associates doing similar work can end up on very different trajectories. If you are operating at a high level but unclear on why your advancement feels uncertain, this episode reframes what is actually being evaluated and how to think about this stage more strategically. At a Glance 01:20 The moment you realize you are doing partner-level work without partner authority 02:12 Why the senior associate role exists structurally but not conceptually 03:30 How BigLaw presents a linear path that breaks down at the senior level 04:20 How senior associates run matters while partners retain final decision authority 05:12 The gap between responsibility and control and why it creates tension 06:14 How credit and accountability are distributed differently for associates and partners 07:21 Why recognition and advancement often lag behind your actual performance 08:06 How "borrowed authority" works and why it can disappear quickly 08:55 How your posture shifts from decision maker to recommender in partner settings 10:04 Why working harder does not resolve the identity gap 11:01 What is actually being evaluated beyond execution quality 11:46 How partner visibility and advocacy shape your trajectory 12:07 Why your career path becomes a function of who interprets your work Rate, Review, & Follow on Apple Podcasts & Spotify Do you enjoy listening to Big Law Life?  Please consider rating and reviewing the show!

McGlynn argues Russia uses nuclear signaling as everyday coercion, exploits Western self-deterrence, and conducts long-running manipulation by targeting societal weak points, making resilience depend on trust and social cohesion. They discuss Russia's expansionist pattern until meeting a firm frontier, the need to impose asymmetric costs in the hybrid domain, and the West's performative messaging and slow procurement cycles versus Ukraine's rapid wartime innovation. McGlynn warns Russia's aims remain eliminating Ukrainian sovereignty and testing NATO if successful, stresses cooperation with Ukraine as Europe's key security guarantee, and describes work to build an occupied-territories insights hub to better document occupation realities.----------

In Part 2 of this conversation, Sarah Uwadiae and family lawyer Lucy Diale Mewanu go deeper into the real-life consequences of separation in immigrant families, with a special focus on spousal sponsorship and the myths that keep many women feeling trapped.Lucy shares powerful case examples where partners left without warning, moved provinces, or started new relationships while still legally married, leaving the other spouse to navigate custody, finances, and immigration fears alone. She explains what actually happens legally when someone “just leaves,” how courts respond, and why waiting in silence can make situations harder to resolve.A major focus of this episode is spousal sponsorship. Lucy breaks down common misconceptions, clarifies what sponsored spouses can and cannot lose if a relationship ends, and explains the sponsor's financial obligations. She emphasizes that immigration status is often misunderstood and that many people stay in unsafe or unhealthy situations out of fear rather than fact.The conversation highlights the importance of seeking accurate legal information early, protecting children's stability, and understanding that separation does not automatically mean deportation or loss of rights.Topics covered include:What happens legally when a spouse abandons the homeSeparation without communication or agreementCustody realities after one parent disappearsSpousal sponsorship myths vs legal factsImmigration status and fear of deportationFinancial responsibility of the sponsor after separationWhy many sponsored spouses feel “stuck”When and how to seek legal helpThis episode is for education and public awareness only and is not legal advice.

In this episode, Melanie Rua of Bloomberg Intelligence sits down with Randall Strickland, a sustainable investment advisor to philanthropic organizations, and Jesse Gerstin, faculty at the Bard MBA in Sustainability and community finance practitioner at the nonprofit Inclusiv.  Together, they untangle the differences between ESG, sustainable finance and impact investing; and discuss how the field is evolving amid political backlash and shifting narratives. Despite the headlines, they argue that the underlying work of aligning finance with environmental and social outcomes continues—often under different names.  The conversation covers public and private markets, the long-term opportunity in clean energy, and the financial fluency today's sustainability leaders need to drive meaningful change across every sector.

In this episode, Christo Siebrits, Senior Associate and General Counsel at AbbVie, outlines how a validated internal large language model environment combined with a forced-ranking strategy for use cases can mitigate risk while focusing technical resources on high-value initiatives. The discussion focuses on practical frameworks for cross-functional training, aligning with the EU AI Act, and integrating legal oversight into early-stage technical development to ensure scalable and compliant innovation.

Usually, the arguments tend to be that the Russian economy is either doing fantastic or that it's about to collapse. In reality it's none of that, but there is something else that is making the Kremlin worried, that will become a bigger and bigger problem for it to deal with and that will influence all of its decisions - and that could potentially present a problem for the stability and survival of the regime. I talk about that - and much more, like why the Iran war matters far less for Russia's economy than most people assume - with Janis Kluge, a foremost European expert on Russian economy and a Senior Associate at the German Institute for International and Security Affairs.

EAST LANSING, Mich. – Martin Commercial Properties has released its 2025 H1 Market Insights Report for the Greater Lansing Area, offering an in-depth analysis of commercial real estate conditions across the industrial, office, and retail sectors. The report points to increasing market stability and positive momentum, even as many industries continue to navigate broader economic uncertainty. MBN: MCP Van Martin “While the economic landscape remains mixed, commercial real estate in Greater Lansing is demonstrating resilience and steady forward progress,” said Van W. Martin, CCIM, SIOR, CRE, President and CEO of Martin Commercial Properties (left). “Across all three sectors, we're seeing fundamentals that suggest the market is adjusting thoughtfully rather than pulling back.” According to the report, the industrial sector continues to be supported by historically high rental rates, limited availability of modern facilities, and sustained investment tied to manufacturing, logistics, and energy-related users. Demand for well-located, functional industrial space remains strong, underscoring the region's competitiveness and long-term growth potential. The office market is showing early signs of stabilization as obsolete inventory is removed, sublease space declines, and tenants increasingly prioritize high-quality, well-located buildings. While challenges remain, particularly in older properties, leasing activity and owner-occupier interest are helping rebalance the market. Retail performance remains strongest in established corridors, where consistent leasing activity, redevelopment of formerly vacant spaces, and targeted new construction continue to reinforce neighborhood and necessity-based retail demand. Prime locations are outperforming the broader market, reflecting disciplined expansion by retailers and continued consumer engagement. MBN: MCP GL “Greater Lansing's commercial real estate market is evolving in a measured and responsible way,” Martin added. “The data shows continued confidence in quality assets, strategic reinvestment, and a foundation that supports long-term economic health across the region.” About Martin Commercial Properties: Martin Commercial Properties is one of Michigan's leading independent commercial real estate firms, with a legacy spanning over 60 years. Renowned for its unparalleled expertise, influence, and client-centric approach, Martin Commercial Properties offers a complete range of commercial real estate services, including brokerage, property development, property management, investment services, and corporate solutions.

Can a 60-Second video change who enters the architecture profession?In this episode of Practice Disrupted, Evelyn Lee sits down with Gabriella Bermea, a Senior Associate at Perkins Eastman and the voice behind the growing social media platform "Architect Big Sis." Together, they explore the power of storytelling outside traditional portfolios, discussing how short-form video and personal narrative can demystify the profession for the next generation.Gabriella shares her journey as a "border kid" from Eagle Pass, Texas, where careers were often inherited rather than discovered. She opens up about the resilience required to navigate architecture school and licensure, revealing she took 16 ARE exams (failing 10) before becoming the first in her class to get licensed. Now, she uses those experiences to create content that answers the questions she had as a student, offering a transparent look at salaries, career progression, and the reality of studio culture."If your best people are afraid to speak, you're not protecting that professionalism, you're just protecting your control over them." - Gabriella BermeaThe conversation also addresses the business side of content creation. Gabriella explains why metrics like "saves" and "shares" are more valuable than views, and why firms should view employee advocacy as an asset rather than a liability. Whether you are a student looking for guidance or a firm leader navigating the creator economy, this episode challenges the industry to stop hiding behind polished images and start sharing the unfiltered truth.Guest:Gabriella Bermea is a Senior Associate at Perkins Eastman and a 2024 AIA Young Architects Award recipient.

Changes are coming to UK inheritance tax legislation. From April 2027, many expats with UK Self-Invested Personal Pensions (SIPPs) could face a 40% UK inheritance tax hit on pension values above the £325,000 nil-rate band, but the way the new rules are drafted may allow non-long-term UK residents to structure their SIPPs so that non-UK underlying assets sit outside the UK inheritance tax net.    Richard Taylor, dual UK/US citizen and Chartered Financial Planner, is joined by Tobias Gleed-Owen, Senior Associate at Birketts, to discuss the upcoming changes to SIPPs and inheritance tax. This episode of Expat Wealth explores how UK expats, or future recipients of a UK inheritance or pension, can prepare for the April 2027 changes. Richard and Tobias unpack how the draft UK rules will treat pensions for inheritance tax, why the position most people have assumed is likely wrong, and how looking through to the underlying investments in an SIPP may keep large portions of a UK pension outside the UK inheritance tax net.    In this episode, Richard and Tobias take a detailed look at:    The big picture: An overview of the 2027 UK inheritance tax change on pensions.    Practical planning opportunities: How to structure or restructure your SIPP investments.    What to do if you have an old defined benefit pension.    Pension Commencement Lump Sums: Whether or not the UK 25% “tax-free lump sum” is tax-free in the US.     --    Expat Wealth is supported by Plan First Wealth.

Mexico has experienced record levels of foreign direct investment in recent years, as the drive for supply chain security has created a boom in interest in Mexico's manufacturing sector. Yet, when measured overall, investment is down in Mexico. Two issues stand out as driving investment decline: uncertainty around fiscal governance and tax regulation enforcement. In this episode, Ryan C. Berg sits down with Denise Dresser, Senior Associate with the Americas Program at CSIS and professor of political science at the Autonomous Technological Institute of Mexico (ITAM). Together they discuss how changes to Mexico's regulatory, and particularly tax environment are undermining investor confidence and contributing to broader concerns related to the upcoming 2026 Joint Review of the U.S.-Mexico-Canada free trade agreement. They also explore the ways in which tax policy intersects with the issues Mexico faces over judicial independence, insecurity, and diplomatic tensions with both the United States and Canada.

In this episode of the Healthy, Wealthy and Smart podcast, Dr. Karen Litzy interviews Pete Moore, founder of Integrity Square, discussing the evolution of the health, active lifestyle, and outdoor sector, known as Halo. They explore the shortcomings of the term 'wellness', the importance of understanding business valuations and KPIs, and the emotional readiness required for business transitions. Pete shares insights on navigating growth, preparing for exits, and the significance of knowing one's competitors and market position. Takeaways The term 'wellness' is outdated and not serving the industry. Understanding your market position is crucial for business success. Local libraries can be valuable resources for business research. Key performance indicators (KPIs) are essential for evaluating business health. Emotional readiness is as important as financial readiness for business transitions. Knowing your competitors helps in strategic planning. Valuations are driven by more than just revenue multipliers. Founders often overlook the importance of mental preparation for exits. Networking and mentorship are vital for entrepreneurial growth. Continuous learning and adaptation are key to success in the Halo sector.  Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Halo and Wellness 01:49 Navigating Business Growth and Exits 03:22 Understanding Valuations and KPIs 05:54 Emotional Readiness for Business Transitions 06:56 Quickfire Insights for Entrepreneurs More About Pete: Pete is the Founder, Managing Partner and Chief Dream Architect at Integrity Square ("ISQ"), a leading boutique financial advisory firm focused on the $4.7T Health, Active Lifestyle, Outdoor ("HALO") sector.  Since founding ISQ in 2010, the firm has played an active advisory role in 100+ mergers & acquisitions, private placements and advisory assignments across North America.

We recorded this episode across Friday afternoon and deep into the evening inside the Blue Zone at COP30. At the time of publishing, there is still no final deal. The negotiations are ongoing, positions are shifting, and the outcome remains uncertain. We know that by the time you listen, some of what we heard today may already have changed, but we decided there was value in sharing the day with you. This episode is meant as a time capsule.We wanted to bring you inside the atmosphere of a COP Friday: the outrage, the optimism, the urgency, and the sheer human effort that goes into trying to land a deal. Rather than wait for the dust to settle, we spoke to the people living this moment. City leaders. Climate diplomats. Ministers from the front lines. Seasoned negotiators who've been in this process for decades. Activists still fighting for the best possible outcome for the planet. Their perspectives were captured as they were living this day, not in hindsight.This episode captures the feeling of a COP Friday: the confusion, the determination, the fear of losing ambition, and the belief, still alive in many corners, that progress is possible if countries choose it.With thanks to those who spoke with us:⁠Eric Garcetti, former US Ambassador to India and former mayor of LA Mark Watts, CEO of C40⁠Matt Webb, Associate Director for Global Clean Power Diplomacy, E3GGustavo Pinheiro, Senior Associate, E3G⁠Irene Velez Torres, Colombian Minister for Environment and Sustainable Development and head of the Colombian delegation⁠Dr. Antwi-Boasiako Amoah, Ghanian Negotiator and incoming head of Africa Group of Negotiators (AGN)Giovanni Maurice Pradipta, Foundation for Sustainability
