THE RIGHTS STUFF I - SWEAT YOUR IP: Get the most from your creative assets
Event Information
Description
A one-day event that will help Creative, Digital and Media Companies make the most of their Intellectual Property (IP).
IP is the life-blood of Creative, Digital and Media businesses, yet all too often, business-owners operating in the sector don’t fully understand IP or how to exploit it.
This must-attend event will feature contributions from leading Creative, Digital and Media professionals, each sharing their experiences of how to protect IP and turn previously dormant assets into valuable income streams.
A range of IP lawyers will be on-hand throughout the day, providing specialist legal expertise to proceedings. In addition, attendees will be able to book a one-to-one session with an IP lawyer to get advice on specific issues they face.
Confirmed guest speakers include:
- renowned international animation and children’s producer Mike Young (Superted creator);
- former European President of The Henson Company Angus Fletcher;
- veteran international financing guru John Graydon (Head of Film & TV at Saffery Champness); and
- IP Brand & Business development expert Erica Wolfe-Murray (from Lola Media).
