Two IPs In A Pod
Brilliant inventions, fresh product designs, iconic brand names and artistic creativity are not only the building blocks of successful business - they deliver a better world for us all. But these valuable forms of intellectual property must be protected in order to flourish. We are the Chartered Institute of Patent Attorneys - the UK's largest intellectual property organisation. Our hosts Lee Davies and Gwilym Roberts chat with entrepreneurs, creatives, patent attorneys and the occasional judge about how patents, trade marks, designs and copyright can improve our lives and solve problems for humanity.
Two IPs In A Pod
IP in the Metaverse
Imagine the scene. Your avatar is moving through a virtual world, interacting with other individuals, but as you leave one digital ecosystem and enter another, your avatar is suddenly naked. The moral of the story? Always check whether your avatar's costume is licensed in different metaverses! Our hosts Lee Davies and Gwilym Roberts grapple with this and other virtual IP conundrums with help from our guides in the metaverse, Dr Michaela MacDonald and Dr Gaetano Dimita of Queen Mary University, London.
