On December 10, 2020, the Dentons’ Technology, New Media & IP Litigation group highlighted six decisions released in 2019-2020 that you need to know about. Our panelists broke down these key decisions and provided insight on what it means for your business in 2021.

Our panelists discussed the following topics:
