  • Thesis Final S R Perrin Pdf Version 1.Pdf
    A critical analysis of the effect of copyright infringement on the UK film and cinema industries Stephen R Perrin Submitted in partial fulfilment for the degree LLM by Research School of Law University of Sheffield September 2017 ABSTRACT Film studios and major cinema operators strongly contend that copyright infringement, commonly known as piracy, is costing the worldwide industry many billions of dollars in lost revenue. A number of senior industry figures, as well as other commentators, foresee the industry’s slow death due to illegal consumption. Consequently, for the past two decades the industry has lobbied governments and legislators to provide legislation that restricts illegal online access to their product. During this period, however, the industry has witnessed significant growth in worldwide box office returns, admissions, film production investment and in the number and quality of cinema available for the exhibition of films. These two observations appear to be at odds. Arguing that film, and especially cinemas, provide socio-cultural as well as economic benefits, this thesis critically examines the industry and academic evidence pointing to the quantum of revenue loss, as well as academic evidence examining the effectiveness of the legal measures that the industry has been successful in establishing. The thesis reaches two conclusions. First, the equivocal nature of research findings regarding revenue losses suggests that estimates of infringement revenue effects appear to have been overstated. Second, the effectiveness of legal measures appears to be in doubt, with any positive effects being short-lived. However, it is argued that the equivocality of the evidence does not permit the counterfactual conclusion that the industry is totally unaffected by copyright infringement, or that legal measures are totally ineffective.

  • RNS Number : 9235L London Stock Exchange Group PLC 24 April 2018 LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE GROUP PLC Annual General Meeting Tuesday
    RNS Number : 9235L London Stock Exchange Group PLC 24 April 2018 LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE GROUP PLC Annual General Meeting Tuesday 24 April 2018 Chairman's statement by Donald Brydon I am pleased to say that the Group delivered another strong financial performance in 2017. We have continued successfully to execute our strategy to grow and diversify, operating on an Open Access basis in partnership with our customers. We are strategically, operationally and financially well positioned to capitalise on a range of opportunities ahead, and to continue to drive returns for shareholders. Against a backdrop of ever evolving macroeconomic, regulatory and political challenges, including Brexit, LSEG continues to progress strongly. The recently implemented MiFID II regulation, which has embedded Open Access as a key principle in financial markets, also offers opportunities as it is a model under which we have been operating for a number of years. Our strategic ambitions have remained steadfast. We are committed to delivering best in class capabilities, driving global growth and developing our customer partnership approach, whilst delivering the financial targets we have set for the next two years. This was clearly demonstrated in our 2017 results, with growth across all of our core business pillars - Intellectual Property; Risk and Balance Sheet Management; and Capital Formation. We have also remained focused on both the organic and inorganic growth of our business divisions, with a number of selective acquisitions including The Yield Book from Citi and the increased shareholding in LCH. For 2017, total continuing income rose to £1.95bn, up 18%, and adjusted operating profit increased to £812m.

  • Roundtable 4
    BRIEFING PAPER BRIEFING Female Founders forum: Roundtable 4 FOREWORD Britain is in the throes of an entrepreneurial revolution, with over half a million companies launched here each year. While we are home to thousands of inspiring smaller businesses, the challenge now is to ensure that the best of these businesses have the environment and the support they need to scale and grow. Despite today’s challenging macroeconomic conditions, we are confident in the pipeline of growing companies looking to float on London Stock Exchange this year. We work closely with a vibrant community of investors, advisory experts and large corporates to ensure that the UK is a competitive environment in which to grow a business for the long term. We spend a significant amount of time speaking to management teams and their investors about their capital raising strategies, explaining the fundraising options available to them and how they might prepare the business to secure future financing. Investors, fundamentally, are looking for well-prepared management teams who have a strong business vision. Our advice would always be to prepare as early as possible for an IPO and not be afraid to ask questions about the process. Our ELITE programme, which launched in the UK three years ago, has helped almost 90 UK companies prepare for growth and investment. The 18-month programme works with management teams to educate and guide them on best practice and securing growth financing, talent management and investor engagement. The community includes some impressive female entrepreneurs among its members – from Unruly co-founder Sarah Wood to Susan Rogerson (Ethical Property Company) and Virginie Charles-Dear (toucanBox).

  • 4.1 Branded Food and Drink Higgidy Pies 12Th June 2009 F
    Design Business Association Design Effectiveness Awards 2009 Packaging: 4.1 Branded Food and Drink Higgidy Pies 12th June 2009 For Publication Executive Summary Driven by a passion for good food Camilla Footit left her job in 2003 as Head of Food for Starbucks and started producing gorgeous handmade pies. Word spread and soon she was supplying bigger players such as EAT cafés and Booths. All sales were own label however, no-one knew they were eating a Higgidy pie. Realising that the pies they were making were snowballing in popularity and earning a glowing reputation for the cafés and restaurants that stocked them, they began to dream of selling them under their own Higgidy brand. The Higgidy team were recommended Ziggurat Brands and we were ultimately briefed to create a brand identity and packaging for Higgidy Pies. The brand essence we developed of ‘The Uncommon Pie’ was a play on words that refl ected the brand truth, that no-one was making pies of this quality. The story of how Camilla’s passion had started the business and how her husband James, an architect, had given up his tree-house building business to join Camilla became the basis for the identity. Camilla’s suggestion that her personality could be summed up as being ‘pink, passionate and posh’ was the icing on the cake. Visual disruption was essential. A copy story runs around the pack featuring light-hearted illustrations of the key players and the ingredients. A window allows the hand-made features of the pie to be seen and a strong and consistent brand colour provides outstanding range blocking on shelf.
