Protecting your identity, against a new breed of infringers
With the advent of Social Media and the expansion of domain names, our personal and business lives have become more and more public – enabling deep and instant connections with prospects on a global scale.
As a marketing tool, it can’t be ignored – but it brings a new risk of infringement. So in this seminar, Gareth Jenkins will explore the role of Intellectual Property Rights within Social Media.
Gareth will discuss some of the IP problems you’re likely to face through the social web, and guide you through the principle rights and remedies available.
He comments, “The protection offered by Intellectual Property Rights is the same today as in the pre-internet era. But infringers have adapted to exploit the new technologies. So we have to ask the question, are current laws sufficient?”
You’re about to discover:
- The risks presented by a new breed of educated infringers
- Where you stand when the infringer has anonymity
- What your local IP protection means within a global platform
