• In a new Esports Africa News interview, Leandro Toscano, Head of the Business Development and Digital Copyright Disputes Section at the World Intellectual Property Organization Arbitration and Mediation Center, examines.
• The central lesson is straightforward: legal protection should be built into an esports business from the beginning.

• Legal due diligence does not create the business.
• Legal protection is part of production The practical mistake is to treat lawyers as emergency services called only after a dispute begins.
