Entertainment is big business, and much of the value developed there is intellectual property. Copyright protection is essential for those who produce books, movies, music, television, and software. Entertainment is broader than its show biz and literary roots, however. The electronics industry in particular has spawned new forms of entertainment such as video games, home theater, and hand-held amusement devices. Kolisch Hartwell has been primarily active on the technological side of the entertainment industry. We have obtained or enforced patent, trademark, or copyright rights for a wide variety of entertainment technologies. These include:
