Graphics Tree and Shutterstock Advance IP Protection for MENA Creators

In the Middle East’s fast-growing digital landscape, protecting creative assets is becoming increasingly important for teams working across crypto, Web3, and AI. From visual content used in blockchain projects to media assets shared across digital communities, proper licensing and IP compliance now play a key role in how creators operate. For this reason, we are sharing this update highlighting the rising focus on intellectual property protection in the MENA region, led by Graphics Tree in partnership with Shutterstock.

Dubai- Dec 4, 2025: In a region where the creative economy is growing at an unprecedented pace, Graphics Tree, a UAE-based leader with over a decade of expertise in content licensing and creative solutions, is driving greater awareness of intellectual property (IP) protection as the exclusive regional partner of Shutterstock.

In today’s digital landscape; where photos and videos can spread across platforms within seconds, the threat of pirated or unauthorized content remains high. Such violations not only undermine the rights of original creators but also expose brands and organizations to significant legal and reputational risks.

“Our clients deserve to create with confidence,” says Sabine Hoteit, Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Graphics Tree. “We ensure that every online asset on our platform is legally obtained, ethically licensed, and fully compliant, helping creative teams focus on innovation rather than legal uncertainty.”

Graphics Tree goes beyond providing access to visual assets. The company delivers comprehensive creative and licensing solutions, offering clients exclusive benefits such as:

Licensing education and compliance guidance

Localized customer support in multiple languages

Corporate-ready contracts and legal documentation

Transparent billing in local currencies for seamless integration into procurement workflows

For large enterprises, Graphics Tree’s Enterprise Packages offer advanced features including license ownership transfers, custom-tailored agreements, comprehensive legal protection, and commercial rights for editorial content. Meanwhile, the Editorial License is specifically designed for newsrooms, media outlets, and documentary producers, ensuring single-use rights and publication compliance aligned with journalistic standards.
