During last week’s Practice Work Shop (PWS) Session, Krithika Muthuraman, Associate, lead a discussion on whether IP could be used as a tool in promoting artists and creators belonging to DBA communities. The session witnessed an engaging discussion on the need and significance of promoting representation of artists from these communities in the creative space. The team also delved into the potential benefit of facilitation schemes and enforcing moral rights, by looking into some examples from contemporary media.

ALG’s Dishti Titus participated in INTA’s Brand Resilience Conference, which was held virtually from September 22-23. The conference focused on risks faced by brands, navigating missteps, misdeeds or mishaps, and the future of brands. Notably, the conference sessions included discussions on cancel culture as well as NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens).
In addition to the educational sessions, the conference included speed networking, a workshop and team trivia followed by a reception. The speed networking session featured ice breaking questions and routine reshuffling of tables to facilitate conversations and maximize the number of connections between participants. In the workshop, attendees were split into teams and called upon to provide legal advice and policy recommendations on the basis of a common hypothetical issue. The team trivia competition put the attendees in small groups and tested their knowledge on the conference panels.
We thank the entire team at INTA in organizing this seamless, interactive and insightful conference.
ALG’s Dishti Titus was invited to speak at a podcast on ‘Non Fungible Tokens & its congruence with Intellectual Property Rights: The Era of Blockchain and its Intersection with Intellectual Property Rights’.
