Managing Intellectual Property

Intellectual property is the currency of creative and media enterprises. In this module you will examine the legal, policy and commercial mechanisms through which intellectual property is managed. Management refers to the exploitation and protection of intellectual property both by organisations and individuals and at the level of government policy and legislation. You will explore the conflicts between different legal, commercial and political imperatives for managing intellectual property through case studies, seminars and presentations by visiting experts.

Creativity and Entrepreneurship

This module will examine two distinct entities – the individual creative entrepreneur and their creative ideas. We will study the entrepreneurial processes that turn ideas to businesses. In assessing the entrepreneurial processes, we will examine the role of intellectual property, the currency of the creative sectors and how value is created in the creative and media enterprises. We will explore the confluence and conflicts between different creative, commercial and legal imperatives for creative entrepreneurs through case studies, seminars, and presentations by visiting experts.
