IDEAS TO ASSETS – A Practical Guide to Patents, Copyrights and Trademarks

Volunteer presenter will introduce legal principles and considerations likely to be encounted while converting ideas to assests, requirements and procedures associated with protecting an invention (patent), a work of art (copyrights), and a brand (trademark) and transferring intellectual property rights (either acquiring or conveying ownership or use rights by assignment or license), or dealings with others, such as manufacturers and distributors. Time permitting, enforcing (or defending against) claims of possible infringement will be discussed. This class does not constitute legal advice. Registration required.
