We’re excited to be holding our May MoMo Chi meeting in the brand new 1871 space! This month, Aric Jacover of Jacover Law will present on the following subject:
What Every Mobile App Developer Needs To Know About Intellectual Property
(How To Protect and Use IP To Maximize Profits and Reduce Risk)
Aric will discuss the life of a mobile app — from development to marketing to sales — while focusing his talk on the various IP issues that can arise along the way and how to best handle them.
Other elements of his talk will include:
– Distinguishing between the various forms of IP found in mobile apps, such as trademarks, copyrights, patents, trade secrets and publicity rights.
– Safely making use of third-party IP in your app (e.g. software code, music, photos, videos, icons, etc)
