Patents on Tap

2013-05-22T20:34:00.000Z

When: Thu Jun 20, 2013 3:30pm to 5:30pm

Where: CRAVE downtown, 825 Hennepin Ave, Minneapolis, MN
Event Description:

Please join us at CRAVE for a lively Patents on Tap roundtable discussion to look at some of the most popular misconceptions about trademark and copyright law. As usual, we will also enjoy a beer tasting and paired bar food as we discuss these important issues. The Internet enables a free flow of commentary and interpretation by the general public on many areas of intellectual property law in the United States. Unsurprisingly, this has fostered numerous myths in the business community relating to the use, ownership, and registration of certain intellectual property, namely copyrights and trademarks. Please join Fish principal Joel Leviton as he "debunks" common trademark and copyright myths about the following:

Copyright: Ownership vs. Possession, and the importance of securing ownership in your company's materials
Copyright: Protection vs. Registrations
Fair Use Under Copyright Laws
Trademark: Use vs. Registration, and the benefit of early registrations
Trademark: Strong Brands vs. Descriptive Marks
Ownership Rights in Nontraditional Trademarks

If you have any questions, please contact Heather Mavencamp: mavencamp@fr.com
