Short Description:
A practical guide to intellectual property in tabletop gaming. Learn the basics of trademarks, copyrights, patents, trade secrets, and contracts to protect your work and empower your design process.

Navigating intellectual property law can feel overwhelming, but protecting your creative work is essential. This session breaks down the complex legal landscape into practical, actionable steps specifically tailored for tabletop game designers.
