Who:

What:

Where:

You can find the video here

When:

October 22, 2014

The Gist:

Trademarks are important, but it is also important to not hurt your end users by choosing a bad one for your project

The Good:

  1. Clear and precise information
  2. Real world examples
  3. Admits to not being legal advice

The Bad:

  1. Presenting style is a little off

Any Questions?

  1. When can a trademark be too generic?
  2. How different is trademark law elsewhere?

Final Thoughts and Rating:

It was an alright presentation. It was nice to hear more in depth about licensing. Overall 7/10.
