Copyrights grant the creator of an original creative work an exclusive right to determine how and if an original work may be used by others. Now, consider that we’re in the age of information, of content. The internet has led to more content creation and publishing by companies and individuals today than ever before. Photos, art, whitepapers, designs, software-code, videos, blogs, and the list goes on and on. Once considered the forgotten IP, in our current age, copyrights have emerged as a valuable source of both corporate opportunity and risk. However, you won’t seize these opportunities and avoid these risks if you don’t understand copyright fundamentals.
