Description

Intellectual Property for Creatives

Join Dr. Smita Kheria, a specialist in Intellectual Property law for creatives, for this afternoon session especially for creative practitioners and businesses. Find out about your intellectual property assets, what they are, what you can do with them, and how you can protect them. From copyright and design rights, to trademarks and a host of legally permitted uses of Intellectual property, there are a variety of rules and tools you can use to create and protect your creative outputs. Knowing your rights can be powerful - understanding how to protect designs, written work and your branding will allow you to have confidence in what belongs to you, without the need to get a lawyer involved. Hear stories and case studies from Smita's research with creatives into their experiences of copyright, and get a primer on IP for creatives. This event is presented by Creative Edinburgh as part of Creatives Mean Business.
