2026 USC-BHBA Institute on Entertainment Law and Business
About this package
The Institute on Entertainment Law and Business brings together top attorneys, studio executives, and industry leaders to tackle the deals, disputes, and forces reshaping entertainment. Sessions cover current industry trends, M&A activity, and where streaming deals are headed, along with a global look at AI regulation and its impact on likeness, copyright, and synthetic content. Panelists examine how rights deals for books, games, news stories, and comics are evolving as studios and rightsholders rethink ownership and leverage. The program also explores the legacy of New York Times v. Sullivan and the limits of defamation law. Additional sessions address the legal and business realities of sports documentaries and docuseries, the economics of theatrical distribution, and how the industry responds to allegations of misconduct against talent and executives.
