Post by Creative Commons

Join us for a rare and intimate conversation with some of the voices who helped build the commons in this virtual Founders Fireside Chat on June 23 from 1-2:30 pm EDT. To mark 25 years of Creative Commons, this special founders fireside chat brings together Lawrence Lessig, Hal Abelson, and Molly Van Houweling, in conversation with moderator Glenn O. Brown. Together, they’ll go beyond the official history to share what it actually felt like to build Creative Commons in its earliest days. Hear about the uncertainty, the debates, and the moments that made them believe this idea could reshape how the world shares knowledge and creativity. Thank you to Champion sponsor Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP for supporting this event!
