Are you a small business owner in Northern Lincolnshire looking to gain a better understanding of intellectual property?
Join us for an informative 2-hour workshop delivered by Avatar IP, tailored for entrepreneurs, business owners, creatives, and innovators, and business advisors.
Intellectual property (IP) is often widely misunderstood and so avoided by business owners and entrepreneurs, leading to expensive mistakes and missed valuable opportunities. This workshop aims to dispel common myths about IP and provide actionable strategies to identify, protect and maximise the value of your intangible assets. Whether you’re launching a start-up or managing a growing business, this session will equip you with the tools to make better, more informed decisions to safeguard the long-term future and success of your business.
What You'll Learn:
Debunking common myths: Understand the realities about the different types of IP rights that are commonly misunderstood. If you believe any of the following myths are true, then you NEED to attend!:
“My business doesn’t have any IP - IP only applies to large or tech companies”
"My business name is protected as long as I’m using it (or I’ve registered it with Companies House)"
“If it’s on the internet, it’s free to use (as it’s in the public domain)”
"Registering a domain name protects my brand name."
"If someone doesn’t put a copyright or trade mark symbol on their work, it’s free to use."
“You can get a patent to protect your ideas”
"IP protection is too expensive for small businesses."
"We can wait until later to protect our IP."
"Changing 10% of someone else’s work avoids copyright infringement”
"I’m safe from infringement as long as I credit the source."
"I own the logo/artwork copyright I commissioned because I paid for it."
“There’s no real difference between the ™ symbol and the ® symbol.”
"I can ignore someone infringing my rights since it doesn’t affect my business much."
“You only need an IP lawyer if you’re suing someone/being sued”.
Pitfalls to avoid: Recognise common mistakes in IP creation, protection and management and how to avoid costly consequences.
Practical tips: Gain practical advice about identifying and safeguarding the hidden IP assets in your business, and how to prevent common infringement risks.
Strategic insights: Discover how well-managed IP can enhance business valuation, attract investors, and secure a competitive edge over competitors in your field.
Who Should Attend:
Being knowledgeable about IP is ideal for:
Business owners, entrepreneurs, start-ups, innovators and creatives:
Business coaches, accountants, anyone in legal or marketing or with the responsibility for identifying, protecting and managing an IP portfolio:
