Thank you to everyone who attended the Intellectual Property Overview for Artists and Designers by Steven McDonald, RISD General Council, last night at Bumble and bumble.
Please join us Monday, May 9th for the next event in our three-part series Licensing and Selling Designs and Intellectual Property. When do you need a licensing agent, and how do you find one? Hear from several agents and artists who have had experience licensing a product or brand.
Our final event,
New Opportunities to Bring Products to Market, will take place Monday, June 1st. With the advent of the Internet, new business models have sprung up for artists and designers. The folks at Etsy have generously offered us their Lab to explore how Etsy, Quirky, and Kickstarter provide opportunities for inventors and entrepreneurs, and meet RISD alumni, faculty and students who've met with success on these sites.
6:30–9pm, Etsy Labs, 55 Washington Street, Suite 712, Brooklyn. $10 per session. Register at
