What the council debates
Help us think through intellectual property — what we should protect and what we might be infringing. WHAT WE HAVE / ARE LAUNCHING: [the brand name, product, content, designs or technology in question] WHAT WE BORROWED OR WERE INSPIRED BY: [fonts, code, content, designs, names] WHERE WE OPERATE: [jurisdictions] Debate: 1. What genuine, defensible IP we have that is worth protecting (trademark, copyright, patent, trade secret). 2. Where a name, design, or borrowed asset might infringe someone else's rights. 3. Licensing — are we within the terms of the tools, content and code we use. 4. The cost and value of protection versus the risk of skipping it. 5. The single biggest IP risk and the single biggest opportunity. FINAL SYNTHESIS: - A short list: what to protect, what to clear, what to change. - The biggest infringement risk and how to de-risk it. - A clear note that clearance searches and filings require qualified IP counsel; this is general guidance only.
