Game Dev Law: The Tutorial Level

Most indie studios underestimate intellectual property rights – and available statistics confirm this. Yet these rights can make or break an entire project. This workshop will walk you through who actually owns the individual parts of a game, how to properly structure collaboration with your team, and what to watch out for when distributing on global platforms. We will also address key practical questions around protecting your rights – from takedown processes to defending against unauthorized claims.

Why attend?

Because one small legal mistake at the beginning of development can destroy your entire game project – and this workshop will help you avoid it.
