Overview (Program Summary)

A program hosted by:

ACC Australia

The landscape for brand commercialisation is rapidly evolving, both in Australia and internationally. This creates new opportunities for brand monetisation and growth, and also presents legal and commercial challenges as arrangements in this space become more complex.  In-house counsel can add substantial value by having a strong grasp of this developing area. 

This webinar, hosted by Gilbert + Tobin’s Tech + IP Group, will provide practical tips for in-house counsel on the management and commercialisation of brands, including in the evolving digital landscape. The session will cover:

  • how you can build and protect brand value from a legal perspective;
  • the interface between brand licensing, non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and the metaverse; and
  • how to future proof your brand licensing and brand protection arrangements.
