Intellectual Property: The Boiling Pot
Just because your business is small, larger businesses may use their weight to claim your intellectual property. This hot topic has become hotter lately, especially with the recent court activity re Scott Smith (EntrepreneurPR) vs. EMI (Entrepreneur Media Inc.) And what happens if EMI is successful in removing the word "entrepreneur" from general use in the English language? This week our small business news analyst, the ever-cogent Dawn Rivers Baker, joins Mary Goulet on Internet Radio to explain the issues. Dawn will also bring in Scott Smith, the head of Entrepreneur PR, who is refusing to give up what he feels is his right to his business' name. This impacts all of us, so don't miss it.
