Webinar to be hosted by National Press Foundation focusing on legal issues
NEW YORK, Jan. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The Next Solutions Group (NSG), a corporate reputation consultancy, is proud to partner with the Copyright Alliance in sponsoring a free webinar series about the intersection of Artificial Intelligence and Intellectual Property, hosted by the National Press Foundation.
The discussion – which will take place on January 22 from noon to 1 p.m. EST — is geared primarily toward journalists, although all are welcome to attend.
The webinar, titled “AI, Intellectual Property, and the Emerging Legal Landscape“, will focus on how the intersection of AI and intellectual property is playing out in federal courts around the U.S., with about 70 cases filed against AI companies. The outcome of the fight over AI’s access to works ranging from audio recordings, music, film, literary and visual works, and computer programs will determine how these works are produced and who is compensated for them.
“NSG is proud to support the National Press Foundation and its efforts to educate journalists on the most important issues impacting society. As AI and IP collide, journalists need to understand what’s at stake in this legal battle, how the outcome could reshape the U.S. economy, and fundamentally change our understanding of IP,” said NSG’s CEO Raymond F. Kerins Jr. “We are thrilled to be a co-sponsor of this important educational programming for journalists.”
Topics to be addressed include legal issues related to fair use, licensing, liability, and the implications for publishing, journalism, software, and the creative economy.
Confirmed speakers include Professor Justin Hughes of Loyola Law School, Terry Hart of the Association of American Publishers and Wayne Brough of the R Street Institute. The session is the first in a planned series on AI and intellectual property by NPF that NSG is co-sponsoring with the Copyright Alliance in the coming months.
The National Press Foundation is solely responsible for the content in this webinar series.

BitGo’s move creates further competition in a burgeoning European crypto market that is expected to generate $26 billion revenue this year, according to one estimate. BitGo, a digital asset infrastructure company with more than $100 billion in assets under custody, has received an extension of its license from Germany’s Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin), enabling it to offer crypto services to European investors. The company said its local subsidiary, BitGo Europe, can now provide custody, staking, transfer, and trading services. Institutional clients will also have access to an over-the-counter (OTC) trading desk and multiple liquidity venues.The extension builds on BitGo’s previous Markets-in-Crypto-Assets (MiCA) license, also issued by BaFIN, and adds trading to the existing custody, transfer and staking services. BitGo acquired its initial MiCA license in May 2025, which allowed it to offer certain services to traditional institutions and crypto native companies in the European Union.Read more
