VIDEO – Web3 & IP: Understanding the NFT and IP Connection

ISOC LIVEOn Wednesday January 25 2023 the Decentralized Future Council, Filecoin Foundation for the Decentralized Web, and Internet Education Foundation presented a panel ‘Web3 & IP: Understanding the NFT and IP Connection‘ to discuss NFTs’ connection to IP and its impact on technological innovation and civil society.

Are NFTs disrupting IP rights? What is the NFT & IP connection? Senators Tillis and Leahy have asked for a study on NFTs and IP rights and, in response, the USPTO and the Copyright Office are holding roundtables and have released a Notice of Inquiry. New decentralized technologies are challenging the definition and scope of IP protections while empowering and inspiring small and large creators alike. What does this mean for intellectual property policy?
