In our globally connected economy where a strong internet presence is necessary for success, trademark bullies and copyright trolls are ever-watching; ready to pounce on unsuspecting infringers.<\/p>\n<p>Kathleen Kuznicki will join an expert line-up of speakers on Saturday, September 17, 2016, at the\u00a0Art Institute of Pittsburgh for the first WordCamp Pittsburgh.\u00a0Developers, content creators, designers and anyone interested in WordPress will benefit from Kathleen&#8217;s uniquely titled presentation, <em>\u00ae? \u2122? \u00a9?
