On Demand Premiere Intellectual Property 101/ Copyrights, Patents, and Trademarks…Oh My!

Feb 27, 2025 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm CST

Watch Now!

Thomas Edison. Henry Ford. Steve Jobs. These three household names revolutionized modern society through the protections afforded to their intellectual property by U.S. patent laws. Traditionally a copyright attaches when the “pen hits the paper” (when an original work is created and “fixed” in a particular expression). However, the analysis of what a copyright is and what it protects does not end there. A copyright is a valuable piece of intellectual property that protects many types of original works, not just artistic, literary, or musical works. Copyright laws are intended to “feed the artist” and give owners the right to reproduce their works and prevent others from doing so without the owner’s permission. This webinar also explores whether a copyright attaches to works created by AI, and how to best protect AI works while avoiding infringing on copyrighted works of others.
