The International Technology Law Association (ITechLaw) announced that it is holding its 2008 World Technology Law Conference and Annual Meeting in Las Vegas, from April 24-25.
The annual conference, taking place at the Bellagio, offers technology and telecommunications lawyers information on developments in technology law, including e-commerce, intellectual property, outsourcing models, data privacy, open source, Internet gaming, and Internet and telecoms communications convergence.

Our 2008 World Technology Law Conference and Annual meeting brings together the finest minds in tech law today while it also creates opportunities for networking and knowledge exchange with experts and colleagues from around the world, said Enrique Batalla, president of ITechLaw and senior partner at Batalla Abogados, Madrid. Las Vegas is a dynamic city that has earned its international reputation as a top destination for conferences and conventions. The city s proclivity for evolution coupled with its high tech accessibility makes it the perfect location for our conference.
