Intellectual Property (IP) information 1-to-1s

September 8, 2021 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm

A virtual one-to-one meeting to help you better understand how you can protect and use the IP in your business.

Intellectual Property (IP) consists of four main areas: copyright, trademarks, patents and registered designs. Knowing and understanding your IP rights can hlep you to ensure that you are safeguarding your creativity effectively, and reduce the chances of problems further down the line.

In this session, our BIPC Devon staff will help you identify the IP in your business, and consider options for protecting it. We can give you an overview of the IP system in the UK, information on how to apply for the different rights, and help with basic searches.

Please note: We are NOT able to provide legal advice. We can, however, provide information and signposting, to help you better understand how you can protect and use the IP in your business.
