Do you conduct webinars?
Do you organize live and virtual performances?
Do you perform in events?

There are certainly IP Rights that we need to consider when organizing virtual and live events. So if your answer is YES to ANY or ALL of the questions above, then this one’s for you!!

The DLSU Intellectual Property Office proudly presents IP Thursdays Session No. 3: “Avoiding Copyright Infringement in Virtual and Live Events: A Focus on Music Licensing”. Co-organized with the DLSU IPA and the DLSU Culture & Arts Office- Official, this session will focus on using music in live and virtual events - the implications and consideration when using copyrighted work (particularly music) when conducting or organizing live and virtual performances.

We invited people in their respective fields who can help us better understand the IP System in the realm of events management. We are inviting everyone to this event and hopefully create meaningful and insightful discussions on the topic.
