AI Governance · Copyright · Trademarks
Where artificial intelligence meets intellectual property law. Internationally.
Izquierdo Advisory advises technology companies, rights holders, corporations, law firms, SMEs, and institutions on AI governance, copyright, trademark strategy, and cross-border IP enforcement across the EU, United States, and Latin America.
The Practice
Artificial intelligence is reshaping how intellectual property is created, governed, and enforced. The legal frameworks are moving. The technical systems are already deployed.
The firm advises where those realities meet — combining copyright, trademark, AI governance, and jurisdiction-aware strategy for clients operating across borders.
Its advice is grounded in industry experience at Sony Music, enforcement work for Ferragamo and Gucci, policy engagement at WIPO, and academic research published by Oxford, Max Planck, Kluwer, and De Gruyter.

The Consultant
Andrés Izquierdo has spent his career at the operational core of intellectual property systems — inside the industry, on enforcement front lines, and at the highest levels of international IP policy.
“Regulatory obligations are implemented differently across jurisdictions — not uniformly applied. The advice that matters understands the difference.”
At the policy level, Andrés has engaged in WIPO treaty negotiations, advised national governments on copyright modernization, and published widely on AI regulation, text and data mining, and digital platform governance.
The firm operates with senior technical partners with over 20 years of experience in software architecture and AI systems, pairing IP and regulatory depth with technical understanding of real deployment environments.

Jurisdictional Reach
Regulatory diversity is the architecture problem the firm was built to solve.
AI governance and IP enforcement systems operate differently across civil-law and common-law jurisdictions, regional blocs, national implementations, treaty obligations, and domestic statutes.

Typical Mandates
The questions clients are asking.
01
Who created this — and can you prove it?
Authorship records, attribution layers, and rights documentation often fail when AI-assisted content scales. Disputes turn on who contributed what, when, and under which rights framework.
Copyright · Attribution · Documentation02
Is your AI system compliant by design?
GPAI providers, high-risk operators, and integrating platforms need technical documentation, risk management systems, human oversight, and conformity assessment built into deployment.
AI Governance · EU AI Act03
When enforcement crosses borders, does your strategy follow?
Synthetic media, scraped training data, AI likenesses, and deepfake content require legal mapping and operational coordination across mismatched jurisdictions.
