Intellectual Property rocks<br />
Intellectual property (IP) is rarely a priority for new businesses and struggling start-ups.<br />
By interactive role-play, <strong>Network</strong> partners will explore why many SMEs don’t use intellectual property, and how to combat their prejudices.<br />
This workshop will show how simply aligning IP opportunities with business’s problems can transform attitudes to IP - from being a just another time-consuming<br />
problem to a money-making solution.<br />
