Maxine Lynn to Address SX Tech Conference in Berlin July 1

BERLIN, DE—Prominent intellectual property attorney Maxine Lynn will be a speaker at the world’s first "sex tech" conference, SX Tech, which is being held in Berlin on July 1, 2019. Lynn will present a keynote and a master class as part of an exciting agenda that includes multiple panel discussions, master classes, and even a hackathon! 

Lynn’s keynote, titled “Intelsexual Property—From the Legal Perspective,” will focus on the global legal aspects currently affecting the sex tech industry. Topics will include FOSTA, GDPR, DMCA, EU Copyright Directive, UK age verification, basic intellectual property law, and several more relevant topics.

Lynn’s master class, titled “Protecting Intellectual Property for SexTech Start-Ups,” will consist of a deep-dive workshop on how to build a foundation for a successful start-up, including identification and protection of intellectual property. On the tech side, using a hypothetical scenario, the class will cover how to identify novel portions of technology that are protectable by patent. Developing a strong brand is just as important as strong technology. Accordingly, the class will cover considerations in choosing company names, product names, and how to protect such using trademark law.

The conference supports the technological and business aspects of the sex and fem-tech industry while examining topics of censorship, sexual education and health, the future of contraception, and entertainment and pleasure.

“I am thrilled to be bringing my knowledge to Europe at SX Tech,” said Lynn. “This first-of-its-kind program promises to be a fantastic experience for people trying to break into, or learn more about, sex tech and the adult industry.”

"SX Tech is the answer to the current situation, what’s going on with the sex tech and fem-tech industry,” explained SX Tech co-founder Ola Miedzynska. “Thanks to women’s empowerment, we have real chances for significant change."
