Intellectual Property Is Personal Now
Creativity has become capital. As audiences fragment and distribution democratizes, the next wave of intellectual property is personal. This session explores how today’s content ecosystem is shaped by data-driven insights, cross-border trends, and emerging investment models. Drawing on global perspectives and grounded local cases, the speakers examine how IP is built, valued, and scaled—and what these shifts reveal about the future of ownership, growth, and strategy in the media industry.
