Kicking off our newest webinar series, Perspectives: A Digital Creatives Conference on Culture, Work, and Lifestyle, we explore the uncommon yet very important topic of Intellectual Property. At a time and age where everyone can be a content creator and, consequently, a content consumer, this is an important issue to shed light to.  What is it Intellectual Property exactly? Why should you know? How can one protect his/her brands and works? Is personal and non-profit use liable to intellectual property? All these questions and more will be discussed on Thursday, May 7, at 8PM through a Facebook Live session in our page.

Joining the webinar as panelists are Arjel de Guzman, Director of OPTMARKS—a brand protection and intellectual property consultancy firm based in Manila, Jowee Alviar—co-founder and Creative Director of design studio Team Manila andincumbent President of the Communication Design Association of the Philippines, and James “Mony” Romana—a lecturer who specializes in the music industry in De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde and MINT whose track record includes various posts in the recording industry since 1991. It will be an open, informative discussion on a topic that’s not known by many, but is of paramount importance, especially in this digital age.
