Trailer Park Inc. and Zuber & Taillieu LLP, in conjunction with Social Media Week 2010, Los Angeles, are pleased to present an interactive panel on Intellectual Property: Protection in the Social Media Age.

PROGRAM

The sharing and diffusion of ideas creates business opportunities.  But when does the sharing stop, and where and when does “ownership" begin?

Join our panel of intellectual property and social media experts for a relevant discussion on what you probably don't know, what you should avoid, and what you should do in your social media endeavors.
