From Stadiums to Statutes: NLU Jodhpur’s IP & Sports Workshop You Shouldn’t Miss
In today’s world, sports isn’t just about the game—it’s about branding, broadcasting, and billion-dollar rights. And right at this intersection comes an interesting opportunity.
The Centre for Intellectual Property Studies (CIPS) at National Law University, Jodhpur is organising a One-Day National Workshop on “Intellectual Property and Sports”, marking the occasion of World Intellectual Property Day.
Why this workshop stands out
This isn’t your typical lecture-heavy session. The workshop dives into how intellectual property shapes the modern sports industry—from protecting athlete image rights to regulating broadcasting and merchandising.
