International convention 'knowledge as public common property'

CSI-Piemonte is organising an international convention entitled 'knowledge as public common property: software, data, know-how' on 17 and 18 November in Turin, Italy.

The event will focus on questions such as:
- what obstacles impede broad access to the ever growing heritage of knowledge?
- what strategies can reconcile privacy and security rights and market pressure for protection of information property (patents, licenses, copyrights etc.)?

The event is aimed at businesses, governmental agencies and ICT experts.For further information, please consult the following web address:
