Overview: Intellectual property can be a powerful asset for any company, young or old. Trademarks protect your brand; copyrights protect your content; and patents can be used to broadly protect your ideas, while company critical information can be safeguarded as a trade secret. However, companies must perform certain actions in order to enforce their IP, because some forms of IP require that certain steps are taken at specific times or a company might inadvertently dedicate its IP assets to the public. Don't let this happen to you! This seminar will discuss what you need to know NOW to protect your intellectual property, and will discuss proactive steps you can take to ensure that you maximize your intellectual property rights in your video game and software.
