A symposium June 26 will discuss the legal implications of crowdfunding and personal donation platforms.
Hosted by the Law and Technology (LTEC) Lab in Windsor Law, the event will run all day in person with an online option.
A keynote address by Greg Elmer, Bell Globemedia research chair in professional communication at Toronto Metropolitan University, is titled “Researching Political Crowdfunding Campaigns: Premises, Promises, and Obstacles.”
In addition, panels will focus on the intersection of media, politics, the creator economy, and crowdfunding; the connections between healthcare, politics, sociology, and crowdfunding; and the legal implications and frameworks for crowdfunding.
The “The Law of Giving: Ecosystem and Legal Implications of Crowdfunding & Personal Donation Platforms” symposium was organized by UWindsor professors Pascale Chapdelaine of law and Vincent Manzerolle of communications.
