About Amanya IP / Anna’s Story

Anna’s journey as a designer highlighted how little creatives often know about protecting their work. After seeing friends’ designs copied and struggling herself to get paid for her creations, Anna realized that understanding intellectual property (IP) was essential for every artist and designer. She learned, sometimes the hard way, that registering designs, trademarks, and using copyright could save both money and heartache. Anna’s courses now help creatives avoid the same pitfalls, showing them how to safeguard their unique ideas, build a professional reputation, and thrive in a competitive, copycat world.

Challenges & Solutions

Designers and artists often struggle with the fear of having their work copied or used without permission, especially as the line between inspiration and infringement can be blurry.

Many creatives are unsure how to protect their digital and physical designs, lack awareness of their rights, and find legal processes complex and expensive. The rise of digital platforms has made unauthorized use and piracy easier, while proving ownership and enforcing rights remains a challenge for those without proper documentation or legal support.
