Presented by: April A. Besl, Esq., Dinsmore & Shohl LLP
All nonprofits have intellectual property. Join us to learn about key issues that nonprofit organizations need to be aware of to protect their intellectual property, including logos, names, marks, ideas, services and inventions. Each participant will receive a checklist to self-audit their organization’s intellectual property practices during the presentation.
This seminar will answer common intellectual property questions including:
Why is intellectual property protection important to my nonprofit?
How do trademarks, copyrights, and other types of intellectual property protections work?
If my nonprofit hires someone to create something (logo, curriculum, website), who owns it?
If a nonprofit has intellectual property rights, what are its enforcement options?
