We were given a talk today about Networking. Here are some of my notes.

-Networking in a way is like making friends

-People don’t buy what you do (product) people buy what you do for them (value)

-We categorise and judge people in their first few moments (impressions matter)

-You need to know your audience and people are using to find people like you

-“Don’t be a food blogger, be the recipe”

-When messaging be as polite as possible as you never know what the other person believes to be polite or impolite

Find a way to I interview and not just bother. I am setting a goal to ask better questions.

Find a way to not be a lurker and add value to the conversation.

Repetition creates reputation

Roxanne Peters had given us a talk today in regards to intellectual property and here are my notes.

-Intellectual Property; A set of international legal rights that protect the financial and reputational interests of creators and innovators

-Includes copyrights, trademarks, design rights, patents, trade secrets

Examples:

-Music copyrights

-Games and Animation Trademarks like trademarking slogans (“Gotta catch em all” From Pokémon)

-Performers rights: Music Copyright to who ever wrote the song and performers rights to who over sang the song or was recorded speaking.

After I was given a hypothetical case study which highlighted the issues with using AI and using ideas of lesser known artists, there was a relevant term that came up. ->

Moral Rights: Your right to not be credited and named in connection to the product (If I want my name to be scratched from the credits)

My first task was to create this blog for DPS where I will document my journey!
