Electronic commerce experts will convene on March 5 and 6 at a conference to
assess the development of electronic commerce policies since the Clinton
Administration issued "A Framework for Global Electronic Commerce." The
conference is hosted by the Berkeley Center for Law and Technology and the
Berkeley Technology Law Journal.
Stuart Feldman, director of IBM's Institute of Advanced Commerce, will open the
conference as keynote speaker. Other familiar participants include Peter Harter
of Netscape Communications, Lawrence Lessig of Harvard Law School, Dan
Scheinman of Cisco Systems, and Pamela Samuelson of the Boalt Hall School of
Law and the School of Information Management and Systems at the University of
California at Berkeley. Conference panels will feature leading technology
experts, economists, attorneys, legal academics and policy makers from such
institutions as the Federal Trade Commission, Citigroup, UC Berkeley, Deloitte
& Touche and the Federal Reserve Bank. Panel topics include privacy protection,
online security, electronic payment systems, commercial and intellectual
property law, telecommunications, infrastructure, technical standards, and an 
evaluation of what is missing from the Clinton Administration's report.
More than 275 attendees are expected at the conference, which will be held on
March 5-6 at the Haas School of Business on the UC Berkeley campus. The event,
organized by the Berkeley Center for Law and Technology and the Berkeley
Technology Law Journal, is sponsored by the School for Information Management
and Systems (UC Berkeley), the Institute for Management, Innovation and
Organization (UC Berkeley), the Haas School of Business (UC Berkeley), the
