The slippery slope of software: how to keep your balance?

11.06.2013

On 11 June 2013, our Benelux TMT departments jointly organised a seminar on the most recent developments in the field of software, entitled “The Slippery Slope of Software - How to keep your balance”.

Needless to say, this seminar was a must for those who want to be up to speed again in the digital landscape. Due to the popularity of the seminar, this seminar was converted into a “webcast”. The webcast is now available on Stibbe’s website. You can thus watch it via this link. All topics were discussed in English.
