The Boutique Lawyer Show: What the future of e-sports law could look like

Following COVID-19, there has been an "e-sports winter" – however, there are murmurs, one lawyer says, of a looming spring, which could see a proliferation of legal work in this space.

In this episode of The Boutique Lawyer Show, host Jerome Doraisamy welcomes back Game Legal principal Mat Jessep to discuss what it means to be an e-sports lawyer, why there has been a "winter" regarding legal work in this space and the impact of such a downturn, where the sector could be headed in the future, and the green shoots that he is seeing moving forward.

Jessep also delves into why he remains bullish about this legal space, the untapped potential for investment and regulatory oversight in this space, how lawyers like himself can advocate for driving this space forward, adapting and pivoting to best serve client needs for a looming spring, and his predictions for the e-sports law space.
