Ep 46 - Understanding Cannabis IP Law & Why It's Critical To Your Success. An interview w/ Hannah Stitt - Esquire, Tectonic Law
11/30/21 • 45 min
As the cannabis industry grows so will the need for IP protection. Often startup companies don’t realize the need to protect their brand. Furthermore, people think it’s impossible to provide IP protection to something that’s considered illegal under Federal Law. In this episode we interview Hannah Stitt, an attorney at Tectonic Law. Hannah helps entrepreneurs navigate the legal landscape for cannabis companies.
Cannabis companies should look at patent and trade secret rights from both an offensive and defensive position to ensure that they are securing protection for their own innovations while avoiding the growing minefield of patent rights of their competitors. It’s possible to accidentally infringe on IP rights of another cannabis company and you don’t even know it. This is why it’s important to find a competent cannabis IP attorney who can help provide the solutions you’ll need to be successful.
