Were you surprised when Taylor Swift re-released Fearless? Why do some reactors on YouTube put a 10-minute timer on their videos? What happens if you make a parody of a song?

If you've always wondered what the deal is about copyrights then this webinar may be the one for you.

This is the first time we are having such a webinar aimed at the larger community and coming from different backgrounds. For now we hope to limit the participants since we want to make this into more of a discussion rather than a seminar-type event.

This is going to be on a first-come first-served basis. Register through the links below:

Did you know that Warner Bros. managed to get a patent for its Nemesis System for the game Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor? In essence, the patent is about how NPCs change behavior after interacting with the player.

What makes this rather unique, especially in the Philippine setting is that the patent focuses on a software.

If you would like to learn more about how to protect the software or app you are developing, feel free to email us at [email protected].
