Cultural Intellectual Property in a Global Marketplace
Free Workshop | In Partnership with the Small Business Legal Clinic
Join us for a free, interactive workshop at the NW Native Economic Summit focused on protecting cultural knowledge, creativity, and business assets in today’s global marketplace. In partnership with the Small Business Legal Clinic, this session will provide a practical overview of intellectual property tools and legal considerations especially relevant to Native-owned and culturally rooted businesses.
Participants will learn how to safeguard traditional designs, creative works, branding, and business ideas while navigating growth, e-commerce, and broader markets. This workshop is designed for small business owners, artists, entrepreneurs, and business development professionals seeking to better understand how to protect cultural assets while building sustainable enterprises.
