Mitchell Feller, a principal at the law firm of Gottlieb Rackman & Reisman, will discuss how intellectual property rights, including copyright, trademark, rights of publicity, patent, and trade secrets, are applied to video games. He will also address recent IP disputes and challenges faced by game developers.
