- Spel
In the first issue of this community podcast, we have two guests: ROMAN ZANIN (General Counsel at Wargaming in Nicosia, 🇨🇾 Cyprus) and RYAN BLACK (Partner at DLA Piper in Vancouver, 🇨🇦 Canada). Here's what we spoke about –
* does a particular law school that you graduated from, matter for building a career in the games industry?
* how do you know that the legal team at your global games company is "big enough" or "small enough"?
* what it's like to work at a global law firm VS working at a national law firm?
* how do games companies choose law firms for particular projects, and does "community reputation" count?
* what is responsible, to a large degree, for good or bad experience in working with a particular law firm/games company?
* do in-house counsels and law firm lawyers have to "love" video games, or that does not affect the work product?
* will the international games industry grow stronger through the COVID-19 pandemics experience, and what are the challenges?
If you have any questions or suggestions, do feel free to drop us a line at the Summit's Discord server (open to attendees and their close contacts). You can also follow future episodes by subscribing to the Summit's newsletter: HERE.
