Big Changes in Protecting Indigenous Knowledge! 🌍

The way the world recognises and protects Indigenous Knowledge is evolving, thanks to a new international treaty. This treaty is the first of its kind to acknowledge the value of Indigenous people's traditional knowledge within the global intellectual property (IP) system.�
In Australia, this has led to the creation of a special Indigenous Knowledge Panel. This panel, made up of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander experts, will help ensure that Indigenous Knowledge is respected and correctly used in trademarks and other IP applications.�
Why does this matter? Indigenous Knowledge includes everything from cultural practices and techniques to traditional names and symbols. By protecting this knowledge, we help preserve the cultural heritage of First Nations people and prevent its misuse.

Private companies come in all shapes and sizes. We're talking about co investing, sharing control, and chasing those big dreams.

But let's be real, it's not always sunshine and rainbows.

You see, with fewer shareholders, disputes can sometimes feel like they're hitting a little too close to home. And don't even get me started on figuring out the true value of those shares, there's no one set valuation method. It's often a combination of methods, and negotiations.

But hey, here's the good news: you're not alone in this.

The law's got your back. There are some solid tools out there to help you ensure everything's above board and make sure your voice is heard loud and clear.

So, where do you start? Well, it all begins with knowing your rights.

Corporations Act 2001, your company's constitution, and any shareholders' agreements… these documents are your best friends when the going gets tough.

But wait, there's more! Don't forget to pay attention to the fine print. Shareholders' agreements, company mergers, trust deeds, they all hold valuable insights into what you can (and can't) do in those sticky situations.

And when it comes to legal options, you've got a few cards up your sleeve. From statutory derivative actions to oppression remedies and breach of the constitution each one offers a unique way to hold parties accountable and seek resolution.

But hey, if legal options isn’t for you, it might be time to think about exiting. Selling your shares or winding up the company are tough decisions, but sometimes they're necessary to move forward.

Remember, you're not just a shareholder, you're a key player in this game, and your voice matters.

In this masterclass episode, Lincoln Hancock, a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu master, reveals how the disciplines of the sport extend far beyond the mat, offering a blueprint for conquering life's challenges. Through his teaching, Lincoln demonstrates that Jiu Jitsu techniques are more than combat techniques they are lessons in discipline, strategy, and resilience that can be applied to all aspects of life. Central to Lincoln's philosophy is the empowering mantra, "Why not me?" a call to action that challenges us to confront opportunities without fear or doubt. This episode delves into how adopting a "Why not me?" attitude can transform obstacles into stepping stones, guiding you to embrace change, take action, and pursue greatness in sports, business, and personal growth. Prepare to be inspired to achieve your goals with the mindset of a champion.

Imagine this…
You meet the girl of your dreams, a soul with a passion for exploring the world.

There you are in Brazil, envisioning a future in Australia, fuelled by love yet facing a reality…

A pile of over a thousand resumes and zero callbacks. Every day, sending out hope, getting silence in return. Friends said, 'Give up.' But he didn't. He sharpened his skills, he hustled harder. And one day, it happened… an email, an interview, a job offer.

This is the story of Daniel Hein, a data expert and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt, a proud Indigenous Brazilian and father of two with an incredible heart.

This is a proof that the best things come to those who don't just wait, but who chase their "yes" with everything they've got.

Tune in to hear Daniel's story of turning 'no way' into 'my way' on our latest podcast episode of Rolling Through Negotiations.

Concerned your words might be taken as defamation?

Here's what you need to know…

🤔 In the world of defamation law, it's not enough for someone to just say something negative about you.

The key lies in proving 'serious harm' to your reputation.

Take the Jones v Jackson case, for example. Despite the hurtful remarks in a Facebook post, the court found no 'serious harm' to Jones’ reputation, so the defamation claim didn't move forward.

It shows that the impact on your life and how others view you really matters in these cases.

What do you think about this requirement in Australian defamation law? Do you agree with how it was applied in Jones v Jackson? Share your thoughts in the comments! 👇
