Summary: Being in Silicon Valley, Stanford is known for its strong focus on intellectual property law and technology more broadly. This panel seeks to ask: what is the relationship between technology and the administrative state? Does technological progress require regulatory guidance? This panel will also consider to what degree development in technology in recent years has been slower than anticipated and whether the administrative state has been an asset or a hindrance to the effective utilization of technology. Featuring Prof. Richard Epstein of New York University School of Law; Prof. Anthony Falzone of the Stanford Center for Internet and Society; Prof. Mark Lemley of Stanford Law School; Mr. Peter Thiel of Clarium Capital; The Honorable Ted Ullyot of Facebook; and Dean Larry Kramer of Stanford Law School as the moderator.
