IP Strategies Behind This Season’s Top Holiday Gifts

This article examines how layered IP protection supports some of the most successful toys and games of 2025, including Labubu plush dolls and licensed products like Disney’s Stitch Puppetronics. For IP managers, it demonstrates how combining trademarks, patents, and copyrights helps protect innovation, enable licensing, and address counterfeiting. Strong IP rights and enforcement play a direct role in preserving revenue and brand control in competitive consumer markets.

Top Trademark Cases of 2025 and What They Mean for 2026 Planning

This year-end review highlights three trademark cases from 2025 that are likely to influence enforcement and portfolio strategy in 2026. The rulings address profit recovery under the Lanham Act, trademark protection for NFTs and digital assets, and how courts evaluate nontraditional marks. For IP managers, these cases signal the need to reassess enforcement tactics, licensing structures, and how trademark value is evaluated in evolving markets.

Copyright carols for choirs

This article explains how copyright applies to familiar carols and modern musical arrangements. For IP managers, it reinforces that even widely known works can carry licensing requirements, especially for copying, recording, or streaming. Modern arrangements often remain protected, and separate licences may be required for different uses. Reviewing copyright clearance processes helps reduce infringement risk and ensure compliant content use.

A Wickedly Good IP Strategy

This blog highlights how the creators behind the development of Wicked used patents, designs and trademarks to protect creative elements, stage design concepts, and merchandising opportunities tied to the franchise. For IP professionals, it shows the value of aligning IP strategy with business goals, from initial concept protection through brand licensing. This example illustrates that early and layered protection across rights types can expand revenue opportunities, support consumer engagement and prevent unauthorised use by third parties. It’s a useful reminder to evaluate entertainment and experience-based assets with the same strategic rigor as technology or product portfolios.

From carols to curtain calls to consumer crazes, these stories show that IP never takes a holiday. As you look ahead to the new year, they offer helpful reminders that thoughtful IP strategy helps protect what people love most and sets the stage for what comes next.
