Workshop on Incentives and Innovation
The Tax and Innovation Research Team workshop will consist of three presentations on themes arising in the Law and the Creative District project organized by Professors Allison Christians and Pierre-Emmanuel Moyse.
The goal of the Law and the Creative District project is to examine the role of regulation in the emergence and growth of innovative industries. Each of the presenter groups has drafted preliminary findings to present to the group for discussion and collaboration. The discussion will help guide the continuing research.
