Talk with Travelers

It was a pleasure to speak at a Tech event organised by Travelers for the insurance sector. We covered IP 101 - what is intellectual property (a concept first developed in 1624), why is it relevant (it represents 84% of the value of the S&P), what are the risks associated with it including the prevalence of Patent Trolls, and how to protect it.

It was a lot of fun and I hope that audience enjoyed the use of songs to ascertain IP infringements.
