Introducing Lolita S. and Matthew Lingard


We are very happy to introduce two new interns, Lolita S.  and Matthew Lingard, who will help provide copyright news over the next six months.



Lolita is currently in her fourth year of a dual degree in Law and Languages at the University of Paris Sud/Saclay and at ISIT Paris, focusing her studies on Digital and Intellectual Property Law.  She is currently in the process of applying for a Master 2 (the equivalent of a L.L.M.) in Digital Law at the Paris Sud/Saclay University. This summer, Lolita will intern for three months at ATM Avocats in Paris, a French law firm focusing on digital law, working under the direction of Managing Partner André Meillassoux. For her Master’s thesis in translation, Lolita is translating a text about electronic communications networks in the U.K. You can learn more about Lolita here and here.


Matt is a solicitor at Intellectual Boutique practice Virtuoso Legal. Before joining Virtuoso as a trainee in 2014, Matt obtained an LLM in Cyberlaw and an LLB in law from the University of Leeds.
Matt writes regularly about IP and has had his work published in a number of academic journals. You can learn more about Matt here and here.
Welcome Lolita and Matt!

1709 Blog: some team changes

The 1709 Blog is delighted to announce the arrival of a new member of the blog team: it's Marie-Andrée Weiss, an attorney admitted in New York State, a blogger in her own right and a recent guest Kat on the IPKat weblog. Marie-Andrée's presence will strengthen our US coverage, as well as offering some further perspectives on all things French.

We also say farewell to Patrick Goold and wish him the very best of luck in his pursuit of academic excellence.
