Data as an Asset
Data is often referred to as “the new oil” – while unrefined it holds no value, properly gathered and used it powers entire industries. The collection, use, and marketing of personal data is one of the most significant resources of our time. This course will explore the various legal regimes that apply to regulate data, including privacy, property, and security, and where there are gaps and overlaps. The course will discuss how the use of data as an asset is treated at the local, national, and international level, and what conflicts and public policy questions result.
