Unlocking CLA’s Workplace Generative AI Permissions – CLA Insight Series

Did you know that 82% of UK professionals have used third-party content in generative AI prompts?

From 1 May 2025, the Copyright Licensing Agency (CLA) has updated and extended its commercial and some public sector licences, enabling UK professionals to use copyright protected content to prompt generative AI (GAI) tools.

Join us for an insightful webinar exploring how published content is being used in generative AI tools in the workplace, and how CLA’s new permissions help organisations stay compliant while embracing innovation.

Tom Cantle, CLA’s Research & Insights Manager, will be sharing key insights from new research into how UK professionals are prompting AI tools with published materials and the copyright implications this creates.

You’ll also get a clear overview of CLA’s new workplace generative AI permissions from our Head of Growth & Renewals, Ossie Ikeogu: what they allow, how they work in practice, and how to make the most of them under your licence.

There’ll also be time for a Q&A session with the CLA team.

Who should attend:
This webinar is designed for current business, pharmaceutical, law or public administration licensees, as well as prospective customers who want to better understand how CLA’s new permissions support responsible workplace generative AI use.
