MIUC students participated in a webinar with LJAA on #DeepFakes: Legal and #BusinessImplications.

Speakers practicing at the intersection of law, #technology and business explained the technology behind the deep fakes and addressed #ethical and regulatory #concerns. At the “dare to ask” session where students had a seat at the (virtual) table they discussed the potential role of the business owners and #onlinecontent dissemination platforms as well as the #governments in addressing regulation of deep fakes.

DESCRIPTION. It’s not easy to nurture – much less strengthen and grow – your client relationships and your authority in the midst of a major crisis. Relationships risk being strained during this period, but there are also powerful opportunities to help clients in a time of need and enrich your connections with them. But it’s always an amazing time to build stronger client relationships and your authority – and even more so now. Economic downturns come and go, but what enables us to build a thriving legal practice or a legal career over time is having deep, trusting relationships with clients who can hire you and refer you, again and again. That’s a message that’s especially needed at the moment. And that’s why Itzik Amiel, attorney-at-law, international speaker and bestselling author to talk about Strengthening Client Relationships in a Crisis: How to Stay in Touch, Add Value, and Build Your Authority for Future Growth. These strategies based on his bestselling book: “The Attention Switch”. If you want to be connected, make yourself worth connecting to. It’s a journey, and every step counts.
