IP refers to creations of the mind, such as inventions; literary and artistic works; designs; and symbols, names and images used in commerce.
Topics of the workshop include:
- Patents
- Trademarks
- Designs
- Copyright
What are they, what do they protect, how does your company obtain them, how long to they last?
IP is often the most valuable asset a company has. It is important you know how to protect it.
